use the correct lifting points to avoid
damaging your vehicle. Notice:

improperly can damage your
vehicle and result in costly
repairs not covered by your

It can be dangerous to work on
your vehicle if you do not have
the proper knowledge, service
manual, tools, or parts. Always
follow owner manual procedures
and consult the service manual
for your vehicle before doing any
service work.
