2019 G63 warning light question

I have poured over the manual and the internet and cannot find an answer. Hopefully someone here can help.

The multifunction display on our 2019 G63 has a warning light intermittently illuminated. It looks like a set of shocks with the number 4 in the corner. Anyone have an idea what this means?

My guess is the air ride system. Don't all G 63's come standard with that suspension setup?

Is it a little blue icon with a 4 in it? If so, nothing to worry about as this is just letting you know cylinder deactivation is on.

KKG63AMG is right. In comfort mode the engine will deactivate half of the cylinder banks (hence the number "4") depending on throttle position, speed, etc in order to conserve fuel. Try changing drive mode to sport or sport +. The graphic you're seeing should not illuminate.
