DX3 Leveling Jacks minor issue

Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get to the bottom of an issue I have been having since the coach was new. Every time I fire up the coach my leveling jacks panel beeps warning me the jacks are down. I hit the retract all button and within 3-5 seconds the beeping stops.

My guess is that they fall a little bit when the coach sits for a couple of hours. They aren’t falling any significant level that I have been able to notice.

Is this common and is it worth addressing? How would I determine which jack is causing the issue?

TIA!!

I believe the OM says this insures that they haven't leaked down and pressures the retract side.
Mine does this each time the key is turned on.

Mine doesn't do it every time the rig is started, but if it sits for a long time (several weeks) it will give me the alert beep and I just hit auto retract. I figure there could possibly be a little leak down though the jacks never actually move and its in retract mode for like 1 second before it shuts off.

Mine does it each time as well. Sometimes it beeps for a longer time if it has been shut off for a few weeks.

I talked to Equalizer and they suggested that the jacks will lose pressure and trigger an alarm after 24 hours. They said this is normal behavior. Knowing this, I have decided to order the Bluetooth module so I can raise them from the drivers seat. Thanks everyone for your input.
