vehicle with the jack. Do not disengage the
parking brake while the vehicle is raised.
Make sure that the ground on which the
vehicle is standing and where you place the
jack is solid, level and not slippery. If
necessary, use a large underlay. On
slippery surfaces, such as tiled floors, you
should use a non-slip underlay, for example
a rubber mat.
Do not use wooden blocks or similar
objects to support the jack. Otherwise the
jack may not be able to achieve its load-
bearing capacity if it is not at its full height.
Never start the engine when the vehicle is
raised.
Also observe the notes on the jack.

Only jack up the vehicle on level ground or
