Do any W221's show "Vehicle Rising" on the Cluster like the W220s?

I recall when using Airmatic on the W220, (and probably the W221 although I never had one with Airmatic) it would always display "Vehicle Rising" if you used this feature. I find it odd that the W221 does not display this message since they are rather verbose about what is going on, however my car has ABC and not Airmatic. Do any of the Airmatic or facelift cars provide this information (I know they do if there is a problem with the system - I am referring to manually raising the car).

What year is your car, is it ABC or Airmatic, and what country was it designed for?

The Airmatic W221 cars display the "vehicle rising" message when the button is pressed. The ABC W221 cars do not display the "vehicle rising" message.
