Hoisting the car

If a garage jack is used to lift the car, the two jack attachments points

should be used. They are specially reinforced to bear the weight of the

car. A garage jack can also be placed under the front of the engine

support frame and under the reinforced plate in the spare wheel well.

Take care not to damage the splash guard under the engine. Ensure that

the jack is positioned so that the car cannot slide off it. Always use

axle stands or similar structures.

If a two-post hoist is used to lift the car, the front lift arm pads should

be positioned under the rear engine frame mounts. The rear lift arm

pads should be positioned under the rear supporting arm bracket.

CAUTION: Certain models have reduced ground clearance due to

the design of the front spoiler. Please observe caution when driving

the car onto a garage hoist.
