Owners Manual

Automatic Level Control
The automatic level control rear suspension comes as a
part
of the Road Sensing Suspension. See Road
Sensing Suspension on page 4-9 for more information.
This type of level control is fully automatic and will provide
a better leveled riding position as well as better handling
under a variety of passenger and loading conditions. An
air compressor connected
to the rear shocks will raise or
lower the rear of the vehicle to maintain proper vehicle
height. The system is activated when the ignition key is
turned to
RUN and will automatically adjust vehicle height
thereafter. The system may exhaust (lower vehicle
height) for up
to 10 minutes after the ignition key has
been turned to OFF. You may hear the air compressor
operating when the height is being adjusted.
If a weight-distributing hitch is being used, it is
recommended
to allow the shocks to inflate, thereby
leveling the vehicle prior
to adjusting the height.
Truck-Camper Loading Information
Your vehicle was neither designed nor intended to carry
a slide-in type camper.
Notice: Adding a slide-in camper or similar
equipment to your vehicle can damage it, and the
repairs wouldn’t be covered by warranty. Don’t
install a slide-in camper or similar equipment
on your vehicle.
Trailer Recommendations
You must subtract your hitch loads from the Cargo
Weight Rating (CWR). CWR is the maximum weight
of
the load your vehicle can carry. It doesn’t include
the weight
of the people inside, but you can figure about
150 Ibs. (68 kg) for each seat. The total cargo load
must not be more than your vehicles CWR.
Weigh your vehicle with your trailer attached,
so that
you won’t go over the GVWR or GAWR. If you are using
a weight-distributing hitch, weigh the vehicle without
the spring bars in place.
You’ll get the best performance
if you spread out the
weight of your load the right way, and
if you choose the
correct hitch and trailer brakes.

a Trailer on page 4-57.
