Question S-500 W221 2010 ABC Malfunction Error

My S500 2010 is giving me ABC Malfunction error now a days and its front left side goes fully up and then comes down to normal height within 10 to 20 seconds and it drives normal and if I switch off and switch on the engine at the same time the error goes as well. What could be the problem?? This happens mostly when the car is parked for a 5 to 6 hours period and if I start and drive within 3 or 4 hours it stays fine... I don't have a computer check in near vicinity there for asking for help if any one have experience with this.

Thank you in advance...

which switch u mean ? one is right beside the command screen which puts the ABC system to sports mode when switched on and normal comfort mode when switched off.

I'm going to do a brake job on the car on all 4 corners. I want to turn the air suspension "OFF" completely to avoid blowing out anything.

Please check here there is suspension button if you put it ON your car will raise to max height. and the ABC button will turn ON the sports mode of ABC function but as far as air leakage is concern I believe that ABC suspension system uses oil instead of air in the suspension system so need to take care of any oil leak I guess. By the way if you lift the car up all your suspensions will open fully automatically giving you space to work and you wont be required to do any suspension on or off thing .....

Thank you All for the answers ... my vehicle is a 2010 and I have just 4 buttons to the left of the speedo/tach. It isn't like the car in the pic. My choices are 4 buttons with a Sport button ... on/off ... that's it.
