- Position the vehicle jack only at the
des ignated lifting points and align the
jack. Otherwise, the vehicle jack could
slip and cause an injury if it does not
have sufficient ho ld on the vehicle.
- A soft or unstab le surface under the
jack may cause the vehicle to slip off
the jack. Always provide a firm base for
the jack on the gro und. If necessary,
use a sturdy board un der the jack.
- On ha rd, slippery surface (such as tile s)
use a rubbe r mat or similar to preve nt
the ja ck from slipping.

your passenge rs:
- Do not raise the vehicle until yo u are
sure the jack is securely engaged.
- Passengers must not remai n in the ve-
hicle when it is j acked up .
- Make sure t hat passengers wait in a
safe place away from the vehicle and
well away from the roadway and traffic.
- Make sure j ack position is correct, ad-
just as necessary and then contin ue to
