Jaguar JJM 21 02 20/15 Automobile User Manual


 
Roadside emergency 6-7
There are four jacking points, two each
side of the vehicle on the underside of the
floor. These provide positive location for
the jack.
Two indented, triangular jack location
points are provided on each sill cover.
The simplest way to correctly locate the
jacking point is to feel along the sill panel
to the triangular indentation and then fit
the jack head to the body flange as shown
in the illustration above.
!
WARNING:
1. Do not attempt to lift the vehicle
unless the jack head is fully
engaged in the jacking point.
2. Ensure that the handbrake is fully
applied.
Place the jack squarely beneath the
appropriate jacking point. Ensure that the
jack head is fully engaged. Carefully raise
the vehicle by turning the handle. Stop
jacking the vehicle when the tyre just
clears the ground. Minimum tyre lift gives
maximum vehicle stability.
Remove the wheel nuts and the wheel.
When changing the alloy road wheels,
transfer the centre badge to the
replacement wheel (when a full-size spare
wheel is used). Using the rounded end of
the wheel nut wrench handle from the
inside of the wheel, push the centre
badge from its housing. Push the centre
badge into the replacement wheel. If the
temporary-use spare wheel is to be fitted,
keep the centre badge safely and fit it to
the repaired full-size wheel when it has
been refitted.
!
WARNING:
When the temporary-use spare
wheel has been fitted, drive with
caution and replace with the
specified wheel and tyre as soon as
possible.
