the ground clearance to its maxi-
mum height.

)
Switch off the ignition and en-
gage fi rst gear or reverse gear
depending on any slope (for a
vehicle with automatic gearbox,
select position P
).

)
If your vehicle is fi tted with
"Hydractive III+" suspension, po-
sition the chock, whichever direc-
tion the gradient may be in, in front
of the front wheel diametrically op-
posite to the one to be replaced.

tain this adjustment for as long
as the jack is under the vehicle

justments),

izontal, stable and non-slippery
