Stabilizer/auto levelers

Hi all, I was wondering, after initial 1st setup and auto leveling, and then living in the trailer for 4-5 days , is it OK/advisable to re: "auto level"? My concern is because we are parked on a grassy area and it has rained a bit. We've got plastic blocks under the leveler pads, but if the trailer has "settled" then maybe it could use a "re-leveling." Our trailer is a 33IK that is one week old and we are on our 1st cruise, trying to learn (safely) as we go. Any advice is welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Is your camper out of level? If it is, then you'd want to pull in the slides and hit the auto level...... check it with a bubble level, side - side and front to back. If it's minor, I typically put the system in manual mode to correct which ever axis is off. The panel will flash a red light on which jacks are out and give you a green light when you're level

We park on grass a lot. I also check my panel or use my hand level and if off I hit manual and touch it up. BUT before you make any major adjustments or hit re level pull in the slides to prevent stressing the slides or frame.

My auto level is real smooth. But the manual is very jerky and had to adjust.
