Attention! Never place the jack under vehicle sills, oil pan, floor panels or directly under steering or suspension components!
Attention! Do not carry out any repairs under the vehicle, which is secured in a raised position with a single jack! Be sure to use reliable props!
For jacking up, park the car on a flat, horizontal surface, if possible with a hard surface. If there is the slightest slope, take precautions against rolling away: support the wheel located diagonally from the one to be removed with wheel chocks), apply the parking brake firmly, engage reverse gear (RKPP), or move the selector lever to the position «R» (AT). Try not to move far from the jacked up car, especially if there are children nearby.
When changing wheels, before jacking up the vehicle, remove the trim cap and use a wheelbrace to loosen the wheel nuts on the wheel to be replaced. Prepare a spare.
When jacking up the vehicle in order to fix it in a raised position when performing more serious repairs than changing a wheel, the head of the hydraulic jack should be placed under the front subframe or rear axle differential housing. In order to distribute the load between the head of the jack and the surface of the jacking point, it makes sense to lay a wooden block. The props are wound up under the standard front and rear side jacking points.
