over. There is a risk of injury or danger to life.
When the vehicle is raised with the jack, do
not lie under the vehicle and do not switch on
the drive-ready state.
Warning
Placing supports, e.g., wooden blocks or sim-
ilar, under the jack may reduce its ability to
bear weight because of the limited height.
The load-carrying capacity of the wooden
blocks may be exceeded and the vehicle may
tip over. There is a risk of injury or danger to
life. Do not place supports under the jack.
Warning
The jack, issued by the vehicle manufacturer,
is provided in order to perform a wheel
change in the event of a breakdown. The
jack is not designed for frequent use, e.g.,
changing from summer to winter tires. Using
the jack frequently may cause it to become
jammed or damaged. There is a risk of injury
and risk of damage to property. Only use the
jack to change an emergency or spare wheel
in the event of a breakdown.
Warning
The jack may slip on soft, uneven, or slippery
ground, e.g., snow, ice, tiles, etc. There is a
risk of injury. If possible, change the wheel on
a flat, solid, slip-resistant surface.
Warning
The jack is optimized for lifting the vehicle
and for the jacking points on the vehicle only.
There is a risk of injury. Do not lift any other
vehicle or cargo using the jack.

Warning
When the jack is not inserted into the jacking
point provided for this purpose, the vehicle
may be damaged or the jack may slip when
it is being cranked up. There is a risk of injury
or risk of damage to property. When cranking
up the jack, ensure that it is inserted in the
jacking point next to the wheel well.
Warning
A vehicle that is raised on a jack may fall
off of the jack if lateral forces are exerted on
it. There is a risk of injury and risk of dam-
age to property. While the vehicle is raised,
do not exert lateral effort on the vehicle or
pull abruptly on the vehicle. Have a stuck
wheel removed by an authorized service cen-
ter or another qualified service center or re-
pair shop.
NOTICE
Using an impact wrench to loosen or tighten
the wheel lock bolt can damage the wheel
lock bolt. There is a risk of damage to prop-
erty. Only use a lug wrench to loosen and
tighten the wheel lock bolt.
