Exclamation risks of driving without self leveling suspension?

My self leveling suspension control unit has failed..before Easter..
The suspension is set to low.
Can I drive the car like this or not? What are the risks?
I need to drive for Easter around 800km without the self leveling suspension working.

Please anyone can give me an idea whether to drive or not, I want to leave tomorrow morning...

Thank you very much,

Mine has given the warning a couple of times but, so far, it re-activates when I restart the car. I didn't notice anything wrong other than a stiffer ride on the short trips with it off.

And, in case anyone is curious about the OP's Easter remark, the dates are different for Eastern Christianity:
