Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s procedures for removal and replacement. Support the vehicle as per garage Health and Safety guidelines. Failure to follow these guidelines could result in injury or property damage. SKF disclaims all liability due to failure to follow these instructions. 

Pay extra attention when working on cars with a start-stop system. Take the right safety measurements before starting work on a car with a start-stop system. Some cars are well safeguarded and the ECM will detect an open engine hood or door, but on others an unexpected restart may occur while working in the engine compartment. Even differences in system approach within one single vehicle brand can be found. Isolate the battery as described by the car manufacturer or take out the ignition key to be on the safe side.
