Entry/Exit Mode (Lowers the vehicle ap-
proximately 1.6 in (40 mm)
– This position
lowers the vehicle for easier passenger entry
and exit as well as lowering the rear of the
vehicle for easier loading and unloading of
cargo. To enter Entry/Exit Mode, push the
“Down” button once from (NRH) while the
vehicle speed is below 25 mph (40 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 Mode change will be cancelled. To exit
Entry/Exit Mode, press the “Up” button once
while in Entry/Exit Mode or drive the vehicle
over 15 mph (24 km/h).
NOTE:
Automatic lowering of the vehicle into Entry/
Exit Mode can be enabled through the
Uconnect® Touch-Screen Radio. If this fea-
ture is enabled, the vehicle will only lower if
the shift lever is in
ⴖ
PARK
ⴖ
, the terrain switch
is in
ⴖ
AUTO
ⴖ
, the transfer-case is in

AUTO”
and the vehicle level should be either in
Normal or Aero Mode. The Vehicle will not
automatically lower if the air suspension
level is in Off Rd 2 or Off Rd 1. If the vehicle
is equipped with Intrusion Theft Module
(ITM), the lowering will be suppressed when
the ignition is switched Off and the Door is
Open to prevent setting the alarm Off.
The Selec-Terrain™ switch will automatically
change the vehicle to the proper height based on
the position of the Selec-Terrain™ switch. The
height can be changed from the default Selec-
Terrain™ setting by normal use of the air suspen-
sion buttons. Refer to “Selec-Terrain™” in “Start-
ing and Operating” for further information.
The system requires that the engine be running
for all changes. When lowering the vehicle all of
the doors, including the liftgate, 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.
The Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system uses
a lifting and lowering pattern which keeps the
headlights from incorrectly shining into oncom-
ing 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 ap-
pearance.
To assist with changing a spare tire, the
Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system has a fea-
ture which allows the automatic leveling to be
disabled. Refer to “Uconnect® Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
