AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM (1500 MODELS) — IF EQUIPPED
Description
The air suspension system provides full time load leveling capability along with the
benefit of being able to adjust vehicle height by the push of a button.
Automatic height changes will occur
based on vehicle speed and the current
vehicle height. The indicator lamps and
instrument cluster messages will operate
the same for automatic changes and user
requested changes.
•
Normal Ride Height (NRH)
– This is the
standard position of the suspension
and is meant for normal driving.
•
Off-Road 1 (OR1) (Raises the vehicle
approximately 1 in (26 mm)
- This posi-
tion should be the primary position for
all off-road driving until Off Road 2
(OR2) is needed. A smoother and
more comfortable ride will result. To
enter OR1, push the “Up” button once
from the NRH position while the ve-
hicle speed is below 35 mph (56 km/
h). When in the OR1 position, if the vehicle speed remains between 40 mph
(64 km/h) and 50 mph (80 km/h) for greater than 20 seconds or if the vehicle
speed exceeds 50 mph (80 km/h), the vehicle will be automatically lowered to
NRH. Off-Road 1 may not be available due to vehicle payload, an instrument
cluster message will be displayed when this occurs. Refer to “Instrument Cluster
Display” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s Manual on
www.ramtrucks.com/en/owners/manuals for further information.
•
Off-Road 2 (OR2) (Raises the vehicle approximately 2 in (51 mm)
- This position is
intended for off-roading use only where maximum ground clearance is required. To
enter OR2, push the “Up” button twice from the NRH position or once from the
OR1 position while vehicle speed is below 20 mph (32 km/h). While in OR2, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) the vehicle height will be automatically
lowered to OR1. Off-Road 2 may not be available due to vehicle payload, an
instrument cluster message will be displayed when this occurs. Refer to “Instru-
ment Cluster Display” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s
Manual on www.ramtrucks.com/en/owners/manuals for further information.
