How to jack up your CX-5

Okay, using my cheap low profile floor jack, I couldn't get the center of the wheel axis area lift because it was too deep from the front and the bumper. I just went ahead and used an area on the side, off the marked area, and after lifting, I put a jack stand on marked areas. I used paper folded up between the jackstand and the body and also a wood block between the floor jack and the body for lifting and that also prevented any scratch/damages. I just did a RightFront<->RrightRear and then LF<->LR because I didn't want to put the whole car on the jack at once, and I'm using the floorjack as a backup support device.
