Important limits

  • The front axle lowers automatically above 25 mph or when the level control is selected again.
  • Lowering can damage the body if an obstacle remains under it.
  • GPS accuracy can vary, so automatic raising must still be monitored.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓If the lift control is absent, the vehicle may not have the front-axle lift option.
  • ✓If it does not raise, reduce speed below 25 mph and wait for suspension warnings to clear.
  • ✓Delete an incorrect stored location under GPS-based Raising > Delete All Saved Positions and save it again at the correct point.
