Air Suspension - Chevrolet KODIAK 2005 Owner's Manual

If you ever have a complete loss of air so that your air
brakes automatically apply, there is a way that the
tow operator can release the parking brakes to tow the
vehicle. See Towing Your Vehicle on page 4-35.

Rear Air Suspension Dump Control
If your vehicle is equipped with the Hendrickson HAS
Series single-axle air suspension, you may have
this control. The air suspension dump control allows the
operator to lower the deck height approximately
4.5 inches (11.5 cm) from the normal frame height.
Press the bottom of the switch to deflate the air
suspension and lower the deck height. Press the
top of the switch to return the suspension to normal
deck height.
An indicator light will come on and stay on whenever
the switch is in the dumped position.
The switch to deflate and
inflate the air suspension
is located in the instrument
panel.
