- Make sure the jack* is stable. If the ground
underneath the jack* is slippery or soft, the
jack can slip or sink in - risk of injury!
- Use only the jack* supplied with your vehicle
to raise the vehicle. If
you
use
a
jack from a
different vehicle, your vehicle may slip off

the
jack - risk of injury!
- Apply the jack* only at the jacking points lo­
cated behind the markings on the door sill
and align it properly. Otherwise there is a
risk of injury since
the
jack* can slip off
sud­

denly if it is not properly engaged.
-The height of the parked vehicle can change
as a result of variations in loading.
- Never start the engine when the vehicle is
on the jack - risk of accident!
- If work has to be done under the vehicle, en­
sure that it is
safely
supported on suitable
stands - risk of injury!
© CAUTION
The vehicle must not be lifted up on its sills.
Only apply the jack*
at

ted behind the markings on the door
