We absolutely love our auto level. The biggest difference you see is likely a 6 point hydraulic system on the larger 5th wheels and an electric 4 point level on the smaller 5th wheels. Our experience has been very positive with the 4 point system on the 303. If the site is very un-level I do use blocks under the front or rear as needed to avoid the system going out of stroke.

Two things I would recommend first; Make sure your steps are not touching the ground, the auto level can move the coach up and down a good bit and if your steps get caught the can get pretty twisted. Secondly, I would retract the rear levelers a bit and raise the front end about 6 inches. This will allow the "Brain" to have something to "Level to" and not just try to adjust a little bit.
PS: We LOVE our auto level system !!!
PPS: We also recommend the "Snap Pad" product, excellent product.Last edited by SolarPoweredRV; 07-20-2020 at 12:34 PM.

I love the auto leveling system and the Anderson blocks. There isn't a ton of room under the rear levelers so I occasionally need to lower the front landing gear a bit to create some additional clearance to slide the blocks under the rear. Every once in a while, we use the Lynx levelers under the tires if we are significantly out of level side to side. No matter what, it is a ton easier that the old manual stabilizers on all of our previous travel trailers.

How do i go about lifting rear jacks and raise front. Dealer never showed me how. Is there a video on this some where?

Your controls should be similar to the above picture.
To raise the rear levelers, you simply hit the "Retract" button (light comes on in retract button) and then press, and hold the rear button until the rear legs retract. The same procedure goes for the front (Landing Gear) legs.
To raise the front of the coach, you simply press, and hold the "Front" button and release the button when the coach lifts up to the point you want to stop it.
Then, in this case, you would simply press the "auto Level" button and the coach will re-level itself.David and Peggy

Brian,
(EDIT- I am seeing above that folks are suggesting making big moves to the unit first and then activating auto-level. That could place me into a bad way with my hard sewage plumbing)
Allow me to side track this a bit. I have the 6 point electric auto-level and I am in a seasonal site with hard PVC pipe running to my 2 discharge pipes (I have 4 tanks, 2 external drain points). If I were to open the hatch, hit the power button to wake up the auto level 3.0 thing and then touch the "autolevel" micro-switch..... an I going to tear apart my PVC pipe plumbing or will the trailer barely move? Mine does seem to flex more now (a month later) than when I fist parked it. To stiffen the chassis would be nice, but I am afraid to touch anything while I am attached to PVC schedule 40 pipe.Last edited by larry0071; 07-21-2020 at 12:36 PM.
