vehicle supported by a jack. Otherwise,
personal injury may occur.

during wheel changing.

 When raising the vehicle, do not place any
objects on top of or underneath the jack.

suspension: When jacking up, be sure to turn
off the height control and stop the engine.
Otherwise, the vehicle height may change in
