Jacking points for a floor jack Position for jack

To jack up the car, apply the jack to one of the special jacking points under the sills.

If a floor jack is used, it can be applied to the standard jacking points used by the dealer.

A floor jack can lift both front wheels or both rear wheels off the ground simultaneously. A jack stand must then be applied under- neath the front of the engine subframe (at the fixing point for the towrope-attachment eye) or to the rear towrope-attachment eye (or under the trailer hitch, if fitted).

NOTICE

Apply the jack only to the jacking points indicated on the body.

1Put the car in 1st gear (automatic trans- mission: move selector to the P position) and apply the parking brake.

2Wind the jack up to a suitable height before placing it under the recess in the sill.

Make sure that the jack fully engages the recess in the sill and that the base of the jack is steady and flat on the ground.

3Remove the wheel cover (where appli- cable).

Remove the wheel bolt caps and loosen the wheel bolts by half a turn.

4Wind the jack to raise the wheel clear of the ground. Remove the wheel bolts and lift off the wheel.
