10 Lift and Support Points NOTE: If you are going to remove heavy components such as suspension or the fuel tank from the rear of the vehicle, first support the front of the vehicle with tall safety stands. When substantial weight is removed from the rear of the vehicle, the center of gravity can change, causing the vehicle to tip forward on the lift. Vehicle Lift 1. Position the lift blocks (A) under the vehicle s front support points (B) and rear support points (C). Floor Jack 1. When lifting the front of the vehicle, set the parking brake. When lifting the rear of the vehicle, put the shift lever in the P position. 2. Block the wheels that are not being lifted. 3. Position the floor jack under the front jacking bracket (A) or the rear jacking bracket (B). Center the jacking bracket on the jack lift platform (C), and jack up the vehicle high enough to fit the safety stands under it. A C B A C 2. Raise the lift a few inches, and rock the vehicle gently to be sure it s firmly supported. 3. Raise the lift to its height, and inspect the vehicle support points for solid contact with the lift blocks. Safety Stands To support the vehicle on safety stands, use the same support points (B and C) as for a vehicle lift. Always use safety stands when working on or under any vehicle that is supported only by a jack. B C 4. Position the safety stands under the support points and adjust them so the vehicle is level. 5. Lower the vehicle onto the stands. 1-10

11 Towing If the vehicle needs to be towed, call a professional towing service. Never tow the vehicle behind another vehicle with a rope or chain. It is very dangerous. Emergency Towing There are three popular methods of towing a vehicle. Flat-bed Equipment The operator loads the vehicle on the back of a truck. This is the only way of transporting the vehicle. To accommodate flat-bed equipment, the vehicle is equipped with a front towing hook (A), front tie down hook slot (B), rear towing hook (C), and rear tie down hook slot (D). The towing hooks can be used with a winch to pull the vehicle onto the truck, and the tie down hook slots can be used to secure the vehicle to the truck. Front: A B Wheel Lift Equipment The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the tires (front or rear) and lift them off the ground. The other two wheels remain on the ground. Never tow the vehicle with this wheel lift equipment. Sling-type Equipment The tow truck uses metal cables with hooks on the ends. These hooks go around parts of the frame or suspension, and the cables lift that end of the vehicle off the ground. The vehicle s suspension and body can be seriously damaged if this method of towing is attempted. This method of towing the Ridgeline is unacceptable. The only recommended way of towing the Ridgeline is on a flat-bed truck. Towing the Ridgeline with only two wheels on the ground will damage parts of the 4WD system. If the vehicle is damaged, it should be transported on a flatbed truck or trailer. Trying to lift or tow the vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle s weight. For non-emergency towing information, refer to the owner s manual. Trailer Towing ( USA RTX model) This vehicle has a class three trailer hitch (A) as standard equipment. The cover (B), the ball mount (C), the hitch pin (D), and the hitch pin clip (E) are stored in the in-bed trunk. Rear: A A C E B D C D 1-11

12 Parts Marking To deter vehicle theft, certain major components are marked with the vehicle identification number (VIN). Original parts have self-adhesive labels. Replacement body parts have generic self-adhesive labels. These labels should not be removed. The original engine or transmission VIN plates are not transferable to the replacement engine or transmission. NOTE: Be careful not to damage the parts marking labels during body repair. Mask the labels before repairing the part. Precautions for Variable Torque Management 4WD (VTM-4) System This vehicle is equipped with the Variable Torque Management 4WD (VTM-4) System. The VTM-4 system distributes driving torque between the front and rear wheels when accelerating and when wheel spin occurs. The VTM-4 system does not have a manual switch to disable the 4WD system. Whenever service work requires spinning the front or rear wheels with the engine, always lift and support the vehicle so all four wheels are off the ground. 1-12
