NOTE: On vehicles with active-aero system, the front jacking point can be accessed by removing the center cover panel from the under cover. Be sure to reinstall the center cover panel after jack-up operation.
Rear:
Caution:
1. When lifting the No. 1 crossmember, do not allow jack lifting plate to contact under cover.
2. In order to prevent scarring the crossmember, place a piece of cloth on the jack's contact surface (to prevent corrosion caused by damage to the coating).
3. A floor jack must never be used on any part of the underbody.
4. Do not attempt to raise one entire side of the vehicle by placing a jack midway between front and rear wheels. This practice may result in permanent damage to the body.
