2006 ML500 - Front jack point location

Either this truck doesn't have one in the center like most Mercedes or I'm missing it. I know the side take-up spots, but I would rather use those for jack stands.

Not my car and I don't usually get under it so I'm leaning more toward I'm missing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you ever figure this out? Planning to do a transmission service and need to put the car on jack stands. My ML is missing a couple of the rubber jacking points, can I just use the metal above them?

Start on page 456 of the owner's manual if you have the same year and model.

Is there a single point lifting location at the rear of ML500 using a floor jack. And once raised where would you place the stands with U pads. The stands I have cannot be used on the inbuilt jacking points of the car.
Thanks,

As you can see from Maj Dundee's post, there is nothing in Mercedes design for jacking from center of vehicle, front or rear.
