Using the Leveling Screen⁚ Side-to-Side Leveling
The LevelMatePRO app’s leveling screen simplifies side-to-side leveling. The top section displays a trailer graphic with a yellow arrow indicating which side needs adjustment. A numerical value shows the height adjustment needed. If the arrow points upward on the left, the left side needs raising. Conversely, an upward-pointing arrow on the right indicates the right side requires raising. Use leveling blocks to achieve the indicated height. Carefully place the blocks under the appropriate wheels, ensuring stability. Then, reposition your vehicle until the tires rest on the blocks. Check the app; the yellow arrow should disappear, and the numerical value should read “0.00,” indicating a level position. If it’s not level, note the displayed measurement, adjust the block height accordingly, and reposition your vehicle again. Repeat this process until the leveling indicator turns green and shows “0.00,” confirming successful side-to-side leveling. Remember to always prioritize safety and stability when working with leveling blocks. Ensure the blocks are firmly in place before driving onto them. This iterative approach ensures precise leveling, resulting in a stable and comfortable setup for your vehicle.
Using the Leveling Screen⁚ Front-to-Back Leveling
Once your vehicle is level side-to-side, proceed to front-to-back leveling using the app’s lower screen section. This section displays a side view of your trailer or vehicle, with a yellow arrow indicating whether the front needs raising (arrow pointing up) or lowering (arrow pointing down). The numerical value indicates the necessary adjustment. For trailers, adjust the tongue jack accordingly. Raise or lower the tongue until the app shows “0.00” and the arrow disappears, indicating a level position. For drivable vehicles, use leveling blocks under the front tires. Place blocks to match the displayed measurement, drive the vehicle onto them, and check the app. If “0.00” isn’t displayed, note the measurement, remove the vehicle from the blocks, adjust the block height, and repeat. This iterative process refines the front-to-back level. Remember to use appropriate safety measures when adjusting the tongue jack or driving onto leveling blocks. Ensure stability and secure positioning before making any adjustments. Always double-check the app readings to confirm that your vehicle is perfectly level front to back before settling into your location. Accurate leveling enhances comfort and stability.
Saving and Recalling Hitch Position
For trailers, the LevelMatePRO app offers a convenient feature to save and recall your hitch position. Before leveling your trailer from front-to-back, disconnect it from your tow vehicle. Extend the tongue jack slightly, ensuring it’s just above the ball mount or hitch plate. In the app’s lower-left corner, tap the “Save Hitch Position” button. This stores the current trailer hitch position. This stored position is invaluable for reconnecting later. After leveling, you can use the “Recall Hitch Position” button (lower right). This screen displays a side view of the trailer, a yellow arrow indicating the needed tongue adjustment (up or down), and a distance measurement. Adjust the tongue jack according to the arrow and measurement, reducing the displayed distance until it reads “0.00” and the indicator turns green. This confirms your hitch is back in its saved position, ready for reconnection to your tow vehicle. The date of the saved position is also displayed, providing a clear reference point. This function simplifies the reconnection process, minimizing guesswork and ensuring a consistent hitch position for easier and safer towing.
