How to Use the Volkswagen Built-in Jack

[NadiaFitz]

Support points of the Volkswagen car jack: There are embossed marks on the front and rear of the car's side beams indicating the support point positions. The lifting claw of the car jack must be engaged on the vertical edges of the side beams at these positions. On smooth surfaces (such as tiled floors), place a non-slip mat (e.g., rubber pad) under the jack base. Below are the specific usage steps: 1. Position the car jack under the car: First, turn the crank to raise the jack's lifting claw until the jack fits properly under the car. Then, the entire base of the jack must be fully supported on the ground. Finally, adjust the jack while continuing to raise the lifting claw until it is close to the car. The lifting claw must grip the vertical edge of the car's side beam to prevent the jack from slipping when lifting the car. 2. Lift the car until the wheel just leaves the ground. 3. Remove the loosened wheel bolts and place them on a clean pad (e.g., wheel cover, cloth, paper) next to the jack, then remove the wheel. 4. Install the spare wheel and slightly tighten all wheel bolts.
