How do leveling jacks work??

Well they called to tell me the unit is fixed and ready to pickup ...so I need a crash course in how the leveling system works so I know for sure they fixed it .. (The inspector will not be there tomorrow) They tell me they replaced the manifold and some other parts... And is now functional ..

Any help would be appreciated.. Thank you

On my 2011 there is automatic and manual leveling. With automatic you just press a button and the leveling system automatically levels the MH. I use the manual a lot. That way you turn the unit on and indicator lights will what areas are low. My leveling system says to start from the front lower the jacks and then lower the rear till those lights go off. Then if the right or left lights are lit press those until that light goes off. Then the center light flashes and the MH is level. For both manual and automatic the parking brake is required before starting. You may want a level to check for level, my manual on the leveling system says to use a 4'. Hope that helps, I sure others will give you ideas also. I downloaded the owners manual for mine online to get the information I have.
