1. PREPARATIONS FOR THE INSPECTION 
MODE

Raise the vehicle using a garage jack and place on
safety stands or drive the vehicle onto free rollers.

WARNING:
• Before raising the vehicle, ensure parking
brakes are applied.
• Do not use a pantograph jack in place of a
safety stand.
• Secure a rope or wire to the front and rear
towing or tie-down hooks to prevent the lateral
runout of front wheels.
• Do not abruptly depress/release clutch pedal
or accelerator pedal during works even when
engine is operating at low speeds since this
may cause vehicle to jump off free rollers.
• In order to prevent the vehicle from slipping
due to vibration, do not place any wooden
blocks or similar items between the safety
stands and the vehicle.

place anything near them. Also, make sure that
nobody goes in front of the vehicle.
