Hydraulic Jack Points for 525i?

[John T.]

I need to use a hydraulic jack to lift my '95 525i to do some cooling system work. I looked in the service manual and it only shows the side jack points for the spare tire jack included with the car. I noticed there is a cross beam which holds the engine and a structural tube behind this as well. Are either of these points safe for jacking of the front end of the car? Thanks in advance.
