WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and 2006 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
On vehicles equipped with air suspension, the electrical power supply to the air suspension system must be shut off prior to jacking the vehicle. This can be accomplished by disconnecting the battery or turning off the air suspension service switch located in the luggage compartment on the LH side. Failure to do so may result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs which may result in shifting of the vehicle during these operations.
