ONLY USE THE AIR LIFT PERFORMANCE 3 APP
ON A MOBILE DEVICE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN

A CLEAR LINE OF SIGHT. TO AVOID THE RISK OF
SERIOUS INJURY OR HARM, VERIFY THAT NO PERSON OR THING IS

WHENEVER USING A FLOOR JACK, MAKE

SURE IT IS RATED FOR THE LOAD IT IS LIFTING.
CHECK THE VEHICLE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR INFORMATION ABOUT
WHERE TO PLACE THE JACK. BEFORE RAISING THE VEHICLE,
PLACE WHEEL CHOCKS IN FRONT AND BEHIND THE WHEELS TO
PREVENT THEM FROM ROLLING. ALWAYS USE JACK STANDS TO
SUPPORT THE VEHICLE. NEVER GET UNDER OR PLACE ANY BODY
