No, without going into manual mode, it won't let you retract the rear jacks prior to hitting the left and right arrows to restore the 5th wheel to its height when unhitched. There's no problem at all with the rear 4 jacks being down when you restore the nose to its unhitched height as the center and rear jacks on each side are plumbed together. That means when the nose rises (let's assume) back to its height when unhitched, the rear jack will compress as the load increases on it and the fluid from that rear jack will go to the center jack to extend it. They are self-compensating. Use the left and right arrows to bring the nose back to its height when unhitched, use the front extend or retract to make any trim adjustments, hitch up and, when ready, enter the manual mode and select Retract All Jacks. After they retract, you're done insofar as the LevelUp system is concerned.
