5. During the Sleep Mode, after 30 minutes the processor
checks the Level Sensing Unit inputs. If no input for a yellow
level light is seen, the processor remains dormant and will
recheck the level unit inputs every thirty minutes. If a yellow
level light input is blinking, the processor will monitor the level
sensing unit inputs continuously. If the input stays off for one
minute, the processor reverts to checking the inputs every
30 minutes. If the input stays on for one minute continuously,
the processor will relevel the vehicle.

and set the park brake. The air leveling system can only be
turned on if the ignition is in the "ON" position. Leaving the
engine running during leveling is recommended. This will
provide a better air supply for leveling. The vehicle will level
with the engine shut off, however more time will be required
for leveling.

LEVELING SYSTEM ACTIVE LIGHT will glow steady. When
the ignition is in the "ON" position, the four red WARNING
lights on the panel will come on. This indicates that the
height control valves have been locked out. The vehicle
should not be moved when these lights are on.
NOTE: After the ignition and all room extension KEY
SWITCHES are turned OFF, the CAN Network stays
active for 10 minutes before shutting down. Leveling
System touch panel lights will stay ON during this time
and go out when the CAN Network shuts down. If the
Leveling System is in the SLEEP MODE when the
Network shuts down, the computer will stay ON. The
Leveling System touch panel lights will all be OFF, but
the Leveling System will still be in the SLEEP MODE.
