injury or even death. Do not place supports un‐
der the vehicle jack.
WARNING
The jack, issued by the vehicle manufacturer, is
provided in order to perform a wheel change in
the event of a breakdown. The jack is not de‐
signed for frequent use; for example, changing
from summer to winter tyres. Using the jack
frequently may cause it to become jammed or
damaged. There is a risk of injury and material
damage. Only use the jack to change an emer‐
gency wheel or a spare wheel when the vehicle
gets a flat tyre.
WARNING
On soft, uneven or slippery ground, for example
snow, ice, tiles or similar, the jack may slip.
There is a risk of injury. Perform the wheel
change on a level, firm and non-slip surface if at
all possible.
WARNING
The jack is only optimised for raising the vehi‐
cle and for use with the jacking points on the
vehicle. There is a risk of injury. Do not lift an‐
other vehicle or other items with the jack.
WARNING
If the jack has not been guided into the jacking
point provided, the vehicle might be damaged
when the jack is extended, or the jack could
slip. There is a risk of injury or material damage.
When extending, make sure that the jack is gui‐
ded into the jacking point adjacent to the
wheelhouse.
WARNING
A vehicle raised with a jack can fall from the
jack if lateral forces are applied. There is a risk
of injury and material damage. If the vehicle is
raised, do not apply any lateral forces to the ve‐
hicle or pull the vehicle with sudden move‐
ments. Have any wheel that is jammed re‐
moved by a Service Partner of the
manufacturer or another qualified Service Part‐
ner or a specialist workshop.
WARNING
The jack can damage the base of the vehicle if
operated incorrectly, thereby exposing high-
voltage components. There is a risk of injury or
material damage. When extending, make sure
that the jack is guided into the jacking point ad‐
jacent to the wheelhouse. Ensure that no parts
of the underbody trim are damaged.
Protecting the vehicle against
rolling
General
The vehicle manufacturer recommends that the
vehicle should additionally be protected against
rolling away during a wheel change.
On a level surface
Place chocks or other suitable objects in front of
and behind the wheel directly opposite to the
one being changed.
