Lifting your vehicle incorrectly with a lifting platform or vehicle jack can cause accidents and
serious personal injury:
•Always read and heed the operating instructions from the lifting platform or vehicle jack
manufacturer and any legal regulations before lifting the vehicle.
•All occupants should leave the vehicle before it is lifted.
