2015 550 Coupe Height Adjust

I reached recently purchased a 2015 S550 coupe, and when I press the Vehicle Raise button, it is not Raise. I can hear the compressor running and it continues to run until I press the button again to turn it off. Any thoughts before I take it to Mercedes?

Reading the online manual, I see it only raises 1". I'm used to my '06 SL 500 which visibly raised higher. I'll have to measure before and after to verify height

Your SL500 definitely had more lift. The 550's system is more for curb clearance. A quick before-and-after measurement is smart you'll see the inch.
