AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The air suspension system is designed to improve ride comfort, vehicle

handling and general vehicle performance by adjusting the vehicle’s ride

height according to vehicle speed, weight added to or removed from the

vehicle and four-wheel drive (if equipped) operation. Normal vehicle

operation does not require any action by the driver.

When you enter the vehicle and the ignition is off, the air suspension will

have automatically lowered the vehicle to its lowest height to provide

easier entry. When a door or the liftgate is opened, the system

memorizes and maintains that height until either all doors are closed or

the vehicle’s speed exceeds 15 mph (24 km/h). The air suspension

system will then raise the vehicle’s height to its normal position when the

ignition is turned on, all doors are closed and the transmission is shifted

from P (Park).

When the vehicle is in motion, the air suspension will adjust the vehicle

ride height to normal operating position to maximize your ride comfort.

If your vehicle is equipped with four-wheel drive and you shift into 4WD

LOW, the air suspension will not move to it’s lowest position; instead, the

ride height is raised above the normal ride height position (at speeds

below 25 mph [40 km/h]) to improve ground clearance.

If a load is added to, or removed from the vehicle, the load leveling

feature of the air suspension system will adjust the suspension to keep

the vehicle at a constant level.

When exiting the vehicle, the air suspension will automatically lower the

vehicle to its lowest height to provide easier exit. You may hear a buzz or

click from the air suspension system when the ignition is turned off. The

air suspension system will stay active for 40 minutes after the ignition is

turned off to accommodate any load changes. (The air compressor may

run when the vehicle is off; this is normal.)

The air suspension shut-off switch is

located behind an access panel on

the left rear quarter trim panel, near

the liftgate. To remove the panel,

turn the control counterclockwise.

On vehicles equipped with

air suspension, turn the air

suspension and the ignition switch

off prior to jacking, hoisting or

towing your vehicle.
