Their positions are indicated by embossed markings B in the side of the lower

Raising the vehicle›
Insert the crank
7
into the mount on the jack
6
» page 212 .
›
Support the base plate of the jack with its entire surface resting on level
ground and ensure that the lever is positioned vertically to the jacking
point » Fig. 202 .
›
Use the crank to raise the jack until its claw encloses the bar » Fig. 202.
›
Continue to raise the jack until the wheel is just lifted off the ground.
WARNING■
Choose a flat and firm surface for jacking the vehicle.■If the wheel has to be changed on a slope, first of all block the opposite
wheel with a stone or similar object to prevent the vehicle from unexpect-
edly rolling away.■
Secure the base plate of the lifting jack with suitable means to prevent
possible moving. A soft and slippery ground under the base plate may move
the lifting jack, causing the vehicle to fall down. It is therefore always nec-
essary to place the lifting jack on a solid surface or use a wide and stable
base. Use a non-slip base (e.g. a rubber foot mat) if the surface is smooth,
such as cobbled stones, tiled floor, etc.
■
Only attach the lifting jack to the attachment points provided for this pur-
pose.
■
Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed.
■
Never position any body parts, such as arms or legs under the vehicle,
while the vehicle is raised with a lifting jack.
■
When the vehicle is raised, never start the engine.
CAUTION
It is important to ensure that the jack is correctly attached to the bar of the
lower beam, as otherwise there is a risk of damage to the vehicle.Anti-theft wheel boltsFig. 203
