3. Shift the transmission in PARK (P).
4. Follow the dolly manufacturer’s instructions to
attach and secure the vehicle being towed to
the dolly and then the loaded dolly to the tow
vehicle. Use an adequate clamping device to ensure
that the front wheels are locked into the straight
position.
5. Release the parking brake only after the vehicle
being towed is rmly attached to the towing
vehicle.
6. Turn the ignition to LOCK.
If the tow vehicle will not be started or driven for
six weeks or more, remove the battery cable
from the negative terminal (post) of the battery.
Electronically Controlled Air
Suspension System
Your vehicle may be equipped with an electronically
controlled air suspension system that automatically
keeps your vehicle level as you load and unload.
The system includes a compressor, two height sensors
and two air springs supporting the rear axle.The system also has an internal clock to prevent
overheating if the in ator is used for prolonged periods.
If the system overheats, all leveling function stops
until the system cools down. During this time, the
indicator light on the air in ator switch will be ashing.
The ignition has to be on for the system to in ate,
in order to raise the vehicle to the standard ride height
after loading. The system can lower the vehicle to
the standard ride height after unloading with the ignition
on and also for up to 30 minutes after the ignition
has been turned off.
You may hear the compressor operating when you load
your vehicle, and periodically as the system adjusts
the vehicle to the standard ride height.
Load leveling will not function normally with the in ator
hose attached to the in ator outlet. Remove the
in ator hose from the outlet during loading and
unloading.
If the vehicle is parked for an extended period of time,
some bleed down of the suspension is normal. Upon
starting the vehicle, proper height will be achieved.

The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the engine off.
3. Turn the headlamp switch from off to parking
lamps four times within three seconds. A double
horn chirp will sound and the TPMS low tire warning
light will begin to ash. The double horn chirp
and ashing TPMS warning light indicate that the
TPMS matching process has started. The TPMS
warning light should continue ashing throughout
the matching procedure. The SERVICE TIRE
MONITOR message will be displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
4. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap stem.
Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing or
decreasing the tire’s air pressure for 10 seconds,
then stop and listen for a single horn chirp. The
single horn chirp should sound within 15 seconds,
con rming that the sensor identi cation code has
been matched to this tire and wheel position. If you
do not hear the con rming single horn chirp, you will
need to start over with step number one. To let
air-pressure out of a tire you can use the pointed
end of the valve cap, a pencil-style air pressure
gage, or a key.
6. Proceed to the passenger’s side front tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 5.7. Proceed to the passenger’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 5.
8. Proceed to the driver’s side rear tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.
9. After hearing the con rming horn chirp for the
driver’s side rear tire, check to see if the TPMS
warning light is still ashing. If yes, turn the ignition
switch to LOCK to exit the sensor matching
process. If the TPMS warning light is not ashing,
the ve minute time limit has passed and you
will need to start the process over beginning
with Step 1.
10. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information label.
11. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems
The spare tire does not have a TPMS sensor. If you
replace one of the road tires with the spare, the CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE message will be displayed on the
DIC screen. This message should go off once you
re-install the road tire containing the TPMS sensor.
The SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message is displayed
when the TPMS is malfunctioning. One or more missing
or inoperable TPMS sensors will cause the SERVICE
TIRE MONITOR message to be displayed. See
your dealer for service.
