Lifting
vehicle
Lifting with workshop hoist
and with floor jack
Notes
• The vehicle should never be lifted
or jacked up from underneath the
engine oil pan, the transmission
housing, the front or rear axle or the
body side members. This could lead
to serious damage.
The same lifting points as illus trated on the
next page for the hoist also apply when a
floor jack is used.
e To avoid damage to the under
body or chassis frame, it is neces
sary to insert a rubber pad between
the floor jack and the lift points.
• To prevent damaging the shock
absorbers when lifting the vehicle
with a jack or on a hoist, the level
selection must be in the jack mode.
See next page. �W
ARNING
• To reduce the risk of serious in
jury and vehicle damage, lift the
vehicle only at the special work
shop hoist and floor jack lift points
illus trated. Failure to lift the ve
hicle at these points could cause
the vehicle to tilt or fall from a lift
if there is a change in vehicle
weight distribution and balance.
This might happen, for example,
when heavy components such as
the engine block or transmission
are removed.
• When removing such heavy
components, anchor vehicle to
hoist or add correspo nding
weights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise, the vehicle
might tilt or slip oH the hoist,
causing serious damage or person
al injur y. DO-IT-YOU

�� WARNING continued
• If you must lift your vehicle with
a floor jack to work underneath,
be sure the vehicle is safely sup
ported on stands intended for this
purpose.
• Before driving over a workshop
hoist, check that the vehicle weight
does not exceed the permissible lift
ing capacity of the hoist.
• Before driving over a workshop
hoist, ensure that there is suHicient
clearance between the hoist and
low parts of the vehicle.
