Jacking points 03 SL500

Newbie here with my first question, probably many more to follow. Question: Typically your domestic cars will show in the owners manual the jacking points for placement of a floor jack. I don't see this anywhere for a 03 SL500. Any diagrams available? Thanks...

The owners manual doesn't tell you how to change a tire ? Jack points are usually 4 rubber pads at the ends of the rocker panels.

If you look under the car in the front, theres a rubber point under the front subframe. Also in the rear there's the differential to lift by for a floor jack. Don't use the floor jack on the 4 side rubber points unless you make an attachment for it to lift only those points. It can bend the rockers with the deep cupped floor jack foot.
