CAUTION:

Shifting a four-wheel-drive vehicle’s
transfer case into NEUTRAL can cause
your vehicle to roll even if the
transmission is in PARK (P). You or
others could be injured. Make sure the
parking brake is firmly set before you shift
the transfer case to NEUTRAL.

6. Shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL. See

Four-Wheel Drive on page 150 for the
proper procedure to select the NEUTRAL
position for your vehicle.

7. Release the parking brake only after the

vehicle being towed is firmly attached to
the towing vehicle.

Level Control

Automatic Level Control

The automatic level control rear suspension is
available on two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive
light-duty vehicles and comes as a part of the
Autoride

®

suspension, if equipped.

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
ten minutes after the ignition key has been turned
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 hitch.
