Jacking, supporting and towing

JACKING, SUPPORTING AND TOWING

WARNING: In accordance with normal workshop practice, and to avoid the possibility of damage or personal injury, work must not be carried out on or under a vehicle when it is supported solely on a jack. Place safety supports under the sill reinforced jacking areas (2, 3, 4 or 5).

CAUTION: On models fitted with extended sill finishers, access to the rear jacking areas is partially obscured. Remove the access panel from the finisher prior to positioning the safety support.

WARNING: Do not position a jack, jack stand or wheel free support under the suspension attachment points.
