Now someone will quote me the Volvo procedure but I opened the car doors which stopped all levelling movement. Ignition was off, parked in drive and hand brake on.
When I had exchanged 20" wheel with space saver and shut the doors, the car raised itself and the rear mud flap cleared the ground. I did not drive the car other than into my garage and transported the wheel to the repairer in the rear of another car.
Spacesaver quotes max speed of 50mph but it's a get out of jail card only.

Yep, you are meant to deactivate the air suspension before jacking. You can do this via Sensus, something like Settings -> My Car -> Suspension -> temporary disable...
:wq
