00 .. ... Lifting Vehicle With A Lifting Platform

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2007 BMW M6, 2007 BMW 650i, 2006 BMW M6, 2006 BMW 650i, and 2005 BMW 645Ci. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Before driving onto a lifting platform, make sure there is sufficient ground clearance between the lifting platform and the car. The lifting platform must comply with the relevant statutory accident prevention regulations and be serviced according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Lifting platform securing points (1) must be fitted to the vehicle.

If necessary, remove these securing points (1) from the equipment pack and clip into bores in front and rear spoiler area from below.

Make sure that the locating plate (2) of the lifting platform arm does not touch (and thereby damage) adjoining components.
