Turn Signal Indicator Lights     
 When the left or right turn signal is 
activated, the turn signal indicator will 
flash independently and the 
corresponding exterior turn signal lamps 
will flash. Turn signals can be activated when the 
multifunction lever is moved down (left) or 
up (right).
NOTE:
A continuous chime will sound if the vehicle is 
driven more than 1 mile (1.6 km) with either 
turn signal on.
Check for an inoperative outside light bulb if 
either indicator flashes at a rapid rate.
If equipped with fog lamps, the fog lamp on the 
side of the activated turn signal will also illumi -
nate to provide additional light when turning.

166STARTING AND OPERATING  
Aero Height (Lowers the vehicle approximately 
0.6 inch [15 mm]) – This position provides 
improved aerodynamics by lowering the vehicle. 
The vehicle will automatically enter Automatic 
Aero Mode when the vehicle speed remains 
between 62 mph (100 km/h) and 66 mph 
(106 km/h) for greater than 20 seconds or if the 
vehicle speed exceeds 66 mph (106 km/h). The 
vehicle will return to NRH from Aero Mode if the 
vehicle speed remains between 30 mph 
(48 km/h) and 35 mph (56 km/h) for greater 
than 20 seconds or if the vehicle speed falls 
below 30 mph (48 km/h).
NOTE:
Automatic Aero mode will be disabled if a 
trailer is detected to prevent shifting loads.
Speed thresholds for raising/lowering the 
vehicle automatically at higher speeds only 
apply if Automatic Aero Mode is enabled in 
your Uconnect Radio settings.
To enter Aero Height manually push the height 
selector switch down once from NRH at any 
vehicle speed. To return to NRH push the height 
selector switch up once while vehicle speed is 
less than 56 mph (90 km/h).
NOTE:Automatic Aero Mode may be disabled through 
vehicle settings in the instrument cluster display  
Ú page 114 or through your Uconnect Radio (if 
equipped)  Ú page 234.
Entry/Exit Height (Lowers the vehicle approxi -
mately 2 inches [51 mm])  – This position lowers 
the vehicle for easier passenger entry and exit 
as well as lowering the vehicle for easier loading 
and unloading of cargo. To enter Entry/Exit 
Mode, push the height selector switch down 
once from the NRH while the vehicle speed is 
below 33 mph (53 km/h). Once the vehicle 
speed goes below 15 mph (24 km/h) the 
vehicle height will begin to lower. If the vehicle 
speed remains between 15 mph (24 km/h) and 
25 mph (40 km/h) for greater than 60 seconds, 
or the vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) 
the Entry/Exit change will be canceled. To return 
to Normal Height Mode, push the height 
selector switch up once while in Entry/Exit or 
drive the vehicle over 15 mph (24 km/h).
NOTE:Entry/Exit Height may be achieved using the 
Remote Lowering feature on your key fob for easier 
entry/loading  Ú page 19. The system requires that the ignition be in the ON/
RUN position or the engine running for all user 
requested changes. When lowering the vehicle, all 
of the doors must be closed. If a door is opened at 
any time while the vehicle is lowering, the change 
will not be completed until the open door(s) is 
closed.
This system uses a lifting and lowering pattern 
which keeps the headlights from incorrectly 
shining into oncoming traffic. When raising the 
vehicle, the rear of the vehicle will move up first 
and then the front. When lowering the vehicle, the 
front will move down first and then the rear.
After the engine is turned off, it may be noticed that 
the air suspension system operates briefly; this is 
normal. The system is correcting the position of the 
vehicle to ensure a proper appearance.
To assist with changing a spare tire, the air 
suspension system has a feature which allows the 
automatic leveling to be disabled  Ú
page 114.
CAUTION!
When in ENTRY/EXIT Height, be aware of your 
surroundings, you may not have the clearance 
required for certain areas and vehicle damage 
may occur.

170STARTING AND OPERATING  
NOTE:
Automatic Aero mode will be disabled if a 
trailer is detected to prevent shifting loads.
Speed thresholds for raising or lowering the 
vehicle only apply if Automatic Aero Mode is 
enabled through vehicle settings on your 
Uconnect Radio.
To enter Aero Height manually push the 
height selector switch down once from NRH 
at any vehicle speed. To return to NRH push 
the height selector switch up once while 
vehicle speed is less than 56 mph (90 km/
h).
Automatic Aero Mode may be disabled 
through vehicle settings on your Uconnect 
Radio.
Entry/Exit Height (Lowers the vehicle approxi -
mately 3 inches [73 mm])  – This position lowers 
the vehicle for easier passenger entry and exit 
as well as lowering the vehicle for easier loading 
and unloading of cargo. To enter Entry/Exit 
Mode, push the height selector switch down 
twice from the NRH while the vehicle speed is 
below 33 mph (53 km/h). Once the vehicle 
speed goes below 15 mph (24 km/h) the 
vehicle height will begin to lower. If the vehicle 
speed remains between 15 mph (24 km/h) and 
25 mph (40 km/h) for greater than 60 seconds, 
or the vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) 
the Entry/Exit change will be canceled. To return  to Normal Height Mode, push the height 
selector switch up twice while in Entry/Exit or 
drive the vehicle over 15 mph (24 km/h). Entry/
Exit Height may not be available due to vehicle 
payload, an instrument cluster display message 
will be shown when this occurs  Ú
page 114.
The system requires that the ignition be in the ON/
RUN position or the engine running for all user 
requested changes. When lowering the vehicle, all 
of the doors must be closed. If a door is opened at 
any time while the vehicle is lowering, the change 
will not be completed until the open door(s) is 
closed.
This system uses a lifting and lowering pattern 
which keeps the headlights from incorrectly 
shining into oncoming traffic. When raising the 
vehicle, the rear of the vehicle will move up first 
and then the front. When lowering the vehicle, the 
front will move down first and then the rear.

the air suspension system operates briefly; this is 
normal. The system is correcting the position of the 
vehicle to ensure a proper appearance. To assist with changing a spare tire, the air 
suspension system has a feature which allows the 
automatic leveling to be disabled  Ú
page 234.
NOTE:Default Ride Height:
Select Aero Height or Normal Ride Height as the 
default for all vehicle speeds and operation. 
This is the selected height that the suspension 
will level for speed changes (e.g. raising from 
Entry/Exit Height at speed, lowering from Off 
Road Height at speed, etc.).
Default ride height can be changed by manually 
adjusting the Air Suspension switch to Normal 
Ride Height or Aero Ride Height and staying in 
the selected height for 2.5 seconds. It will be 
stored as the default ride height and the height 
will be maintained until a new default ride 
height is selected.
If equipped with a touchscreen radio, all enabling/
disabling of air suspension features must be done 
through the radio  Ú page 234.
CAUTION!
When in ENTRY/EXIT Height, be aware of your 
surroundings, you may not have the clearance 
required for certain areas and vehicle damage 
may occur.
WARNING!
The air suspension system uses a high pressure 
volume of air to operate the system. To avoid 
personal injury or damage to the system, see an 
authorized dealer for service.
