Tip
Easy entry and exit
Your vehicle can lower the suspension and move your seat back when you're about to enter or exit the vehicle. This can be helpful by making it easier to get in and out of the driver's seat.
Easy loading
You can lower the rear of the vehicle to make it easier to load heavy cargo into the trunk. Use the button panel in the trunk to adjust the loading height. You can both raise and lower the rear of the vehicle using two different buttons in the button panel.

Your vehicle is equipped with air suspension which will automatically level the vehicle if the ground is uneven. The air suspension has to be turned off when you use a jack to raise a wheel off the ground. If you don't, the vehicle will try to maintain a level position. You can turn air suspension off in settings in the center display.
