WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while driving may be
dangerous. Moving a seat while driving could
result in loss of control which could cause a
collision and serious injury or death.
Seats should be adjusted before fastening the
seat belts and while the vehicle is parked.
Serious injury or death could result from a
poorly adjusted seat belt.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that
the shoulder belt is no longer resting against
your chest. In a collision you could slide under
the seat belt, which could result in serious
injury or death.

Do not place any article under a power seat or
impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may
become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat's path.

136STARTING AND OPERATING
QUADRA-LIFT — IF EQUIPPED
DESCRIPTION
The Quadra-Lift Air Suspension system provides
full time load leveling capability along with the
benefit of vehicle height adjustment by a toggle
switch. The vehicle will automatically raise and
lower the ride height to adapt to the appropriate
driving conditions. At higher speeds, the vehicle
will lower to an aerodynamic ride height and when
operating in off-road modes, the vehicle will raise
the ride height accordingly. The buttons near the
terrain switch in the center console area can be
used to set preferred ride height to match the
appropriate conditions.
Quadra-Lift Switch

Off-Road 2 (OR2) (Non-TrailHawk raises the
vehicle approximately 2.4 inches [60 mm])
(TrailHawk raises the vehicle approximately
3.0 inches [75 mm])
– This position is intended
for off-road use only where maximum ground
clearance is required. To enter OR2, push the
UP button twice from the NRH position or once
from the OR1 position while vehicle speed is
below 20 mph (32 km/h). While in OR2, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) the
vehicle height will be automatically lowered to
OR1 Ú page 199.
Off-Road 1 (OR1) (Raises the vehicle approxi -
mately 1.6 inches [40 mm]) – This is the
primary position for all off-road driving until OR2
is needed. Push the UP button once from the
NRH position while the vehicle speed is below
38 mph (61 km/h). When in the OR1 position, if
the vehicle speed remains between 40 mph
(64 km/h) and 50 mph (80 km/h) for greater
than 20 seconds or if the vehicle speed exceeds
50 mph (80 km/h), the vehicle will be automat -
ically lowered to NRH Ú page 199.

STARTING AND OPERATING187
RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION HITCH
ADJUSTMENT

1. Verify that the vehicle is at the Normal Ride
Height.

NOTE:The vehicle must remain in the engine run position
with all doors closed while attaching a trailer for
proper leveling of the air suspension system.
2. Position the vehicle to be ready to connect to the trailer (do not connect the trailer). 3. For vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift air
suspension, use the touchscreen radio
settings to enable Tire/Jack mode. Tire/Jack
mode will be canceled and the procedure must
be restarted if the vehicle is driven at speeds
above 5mph (8 km/h).
4. Measure the height from the top of the front wheel opening on the fender to ground; this is
height H1.

Measuring Height (H)

5. Attach the trailer to the vehicle without the weight distribution bars connected.
6. Measure the height from the top of the front wheel opening on the fender to the ground;
this is height H2. 7. Install and adjust the tension in the weight
distributing bars per the manufacturer’s
recommendations so that the height of the
front fender is approximately (H2-H1)/2+H1
(about 1/2 the difference between H2 and H1
above Normal Ride Height [H1]).
8. Use the touchscreen radio settings and switch off Tire/Jack mode. Make sure the truck
returns to Normal Ride Height. Perform a
visual inspection of the trailer and
weight-distributing hitch to confirm the
manufacturers’ recommendations have been
met.
9. The vehicle can now be driven.
An improperly adjusted weight-distributing
hitch system may reduce handling, stability,
braking performance, and could result in a
collision.
Weight-distributing systems may not be
compatible with surge brake couplers. Consult
with your hitch and trailer manufacturer or a
reputable Recreational Vehicle dealer for
additional information.

274SAFETY
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage
In the driver and outboard front passenger seats,
the top of the shoulder belt can be adjusted
upward or downward to position the seat belt away
from your neck. Push or squeeze the anchorage
button to release the anchorage, and move it up or
down to the position that serves you best.

Adjustable Upper Anchorage

As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will
prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a lower
position, and if you are taller than average, you will
prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a higher
position. After you release the anchorage button,
try to move it up or down to make sure that it is
locked in position.
NOTE:The adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage is
equipped with an Easy Up feature. This feature
allows the shoulder belt anchorage to be adjusted
in the upward position without pushing or
squeezing the release button. To verify the
shoulder belt anchorage is latched, pull downward
on the shoulder belt anchorage until it is locked
into position.Seat Belt Extender
If a seat belt is not long enough to fit properly, even
when the webbing is fully extended and the
adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage (if
equipped) is in its lowest position, an authorized
dealer can provide you with a Seat Belt Extender.
The Seat Belt Extender should be used only if the
existing seat belt is not long enough. When the
Seat Belt Extender is not required for a different
occupant, it must be removed.
WARNING!
Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make
your injuries in a collision much worse. You
might suffer internal injuries, or you could
even slide out of the seat belt. Follow these
instructions to wear your seat belt safely and
to keep your passengers safe, too.
Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder
and chest with minimal, if any slack so that it
is comfortable and not resting on your neck.
The retractor will withdraw any slack in the
shoulder belt.
Misadjustment of the seat belt could reduce
the effectiveness of the safety belt in a crash.
Always make all seat belt height adjustments
when the vehicle is stationary.
WARNING!
ONLY use a Seat Belt Extender if it is physically
required in order to properly fit the original
seat belt system. DO NOT USE the Seat Belt
Extender if, when worn, the distance between
the front edge of the Seat Belt Extender
buckle and the center of the occupant’s body
is LESS than 6 inches.
Using a Seat Belt Extender when not needed
can increase the risk of serious injury or death
in a collision. Only use the Seat Belt Extender
when the lap belt is not long enough and only
use in the recommended seating positions.
Remove and store the Seat Belt Extender
when not needed.
