4. Press and release the switch to turn the air inflator
on. The indicator light will remain on when the
inflator is running.
The system has an internal clock to prevent the
system from overheating. The system will allow
about five minutes of running time, then the
compressor will stop. The indicator light will then
begin to flash. When the indicator is off, the inflator
can be started again by pressing the switch.
If the compressor is still hot, it may only run for a
short time before shutting off again.

Place the inflator kit tools in the pouch and store
it in its proper location. Remove the inflator hose
from the outlet during loading and unloading. Load
leveling will not function with the inflator hose attached
to the inflator outlet. See Electronically Controlled
Air Suspension System on page 4-50 for more
information.
To reinstall the cover, line up the tabs at the back of the
cover, put it in place and latch the tabs.
A continuous flashing indicator light may also indicate
a malfunction in the air suspension system. See
Electronically Controlled Air Suspension System on
page 4-50 for more information.
If a Tire Goes Flat
It is unusual for a tire to blowout while you are driving,
especially if you maintain your vehicle’s tires properly.
If air goes out of a tire, it is much more likely to leak
out slowly. But if you should ever have a blowout, here
are a few tips about what to expect and what to do:
If a front tire fails, the flat tire will create a drag that pulls
the vehicle toward that side. Take your foot off the
accelerator pedal and grip the steering wheel firmly.
Steer to maintain lane position, and then gently brake
to a stop well out of the traffic lane.
