Why? It certainly can with diagnostics, never tried on the button but the ignition would have to be on and the air tank full.

To be safe you would need axle stands, don't trust the suspension, so why not jack it up and then hold it on axle stands.

EAS is inactive unless engine is running. Other than self levelling function.

I know I can raise mine and switch engine off and it stays raised - did that during its intermittent rear o/s deflation until I replaced the rear air springs. Wouldnt get underneath it though without additional support. Never used to raise on its own though!
