The mounting points are located on the metal bar of the lower sill on the un-
derside of your vehicle. The positions of these are embossed by means of
markings on the side surface of the lower sill » Fig. 181.›
Support the base plate of the jack with its full area resting on level ground
and ensure that the jack is located in a vertical position at the jacking
point » Fig. 181 - 
.
›
Position the lifting jack below the jacking point with the crank and move it up
until its claw encloses the web » Fig. 181 - 
.
›
Continue turning up the jack until the wheel is just about lifted off the
ground.
WARNINGNotes for vehicle liftingâ– Choose a flat and firm surface for jacking the vehicle.â– 
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.
â– 
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.
â– 
Only attach the lifting jack to the attachment points provided for this pur-
pose.
â– 
Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed.
â– 
Never position any body parts, such as arms or legs under the vehicle,
while the vehicle is raised with a lifting jack.
â– 
When the vehicle is raised, never start the engine.
CAUTION
It is important to ensure that the jack is correctly attached to the web of the
lower fork leg, otherwise there is a risk of damage to the vehicle occurring.Anti-theft wheel boltsFig. 182
