3.1 Raising vehicle with lifting platform or
trolley jack
3.1.1 Safety instructions and work prepara‐
tion:
WARNING
♦ Before driving onto a lifting platform, ensure that there is
sufficient clearance between low-lying vehicle compo‐
nents and lifting platform.
♦ Before driving a vehicle onto a lifting platform it must be
ensured that the vehicle weight does not exceed the per‐
missible lifting capacity of the platform.
♦ Vehicle may be lifted only at points indicated in figure to
avoid damaging vehicle underbody or tipping vehicle.
♦ Never start engine and engage a gear with vehicle lifted
as long as even one driven wheel has contact with the
floor! Disregarding these warnings risks the danger of an
accident!
Only valid for vehicles with self-levelling suspension.
– Switch on ignition.
– Activate jacking-up mode. ⇒ page 19
