In addition to the information supplied in the owner's manual, here is some information on the vehicle jacking points for the RAV 4.3.
Please remember:
- Don't jack up a heavily loaded vehicle.
- If you're removing a heavy part (e.g. engine), the centre of gravity of the vehicle is likely to shift as you do it.
- Don't work under a vehicle just supported by the jack - it's not worth the risk.
- Use correctly placed wheel chocks if appropriate.
Above all, always follow the appropriate safety precautions.
If you have side steps fitted, there is some information on side jacking points here:
