I have an older model system that has an Off button that switches the level mode off (thus switching it to travel mode). I only need to hit travel/off once to go from level to travel mode.  Pressing the level mode once puts mine in manual level mode and pressing it twice puts it into auto-level mode. Once the system has leveled, I shut down the engine, then press the off button once to take it out of automatic re-level mode. I know that newer control panels have a button marked travel.

Michael, mine is the same. However if in manual or auto mode with engine running, will revert to travel mode
in a minute or so. Safety feature I guess, so you do not go too far in a non travel height.
