Airmatic HELP!

Guys, I cannot find a concrete answer

I’m trying to put my 2014 CLS 550 4matic with airmatic on a Lift to check for leaks and change my wheels

however

Since it’s on air suspension is there something I have to do before I put it on the lift or let alone jacking up the car and putting it on jack stands??

I read the owners manual and there isn’t any answer to it, no button, no jack mode like some other cars

I keep hearing people say to leave a door open or to take the fuse out before I put it on the lift?

what do I do? Please help!

There are cars where prior to lifting them, you have to shut down the air suspension. Our Volvo is like that. For the CLS which I have owned since 2013, there is no feature I know of to shut down the air suspension and I have never shut it down before lifting the car.

Same answer to your question on Facegroup.....Lift on hoist as per usual. It will not cause any problems.
