Self levelling - need engine running ?

As above - does the engine need to be running for the self levelling to work, or should it operate (by manually moving the sensor arm) with just the ignition on ?

Should only need the ignition on as far as I can see.

Just ignition. I know, because "check" due to self levelling not working appears before starting engine Cry

Sorry to hijack this,but curious to know if you can make much difference to the ride height by altering the arms position on the rear sensor...
