The vehicle must be placed on stands if you
intend to work under it.
Make sure that the jack is placed on a firm,
non-slip, level surface. Do not use wooden
blocks or similar items as jacking supports.
Otherwise, the jack will not be able to ach-
ieve its load-bearing capacity due to the
restricted height.
Do not start the engine at any time while
the wheel is being changed.

Risk of accident
If you fail to position the jack correctly, the
vehicle may:
R
slip off the jack
R
injure you or others
R
be damaged
It is thus important to ensure that the jack
is positioned correctly in the respective
jacking points. Before positioning the jack,
remove any dirt that may have collected in
the jacking points.
The jacking sockets are located behind the
wheel housings of the front wheels and in
front of the wheel housings of the rear
wheels.
