my problem about jacking my car~~

I want to jack up the front of my car up and secure it with two jack stand.
but the warning on the jack stand shows DO NOT LIFT ONE END IF THE OTHER END IS SPPORTED BY THE JACK STAND.
How can I do? I used to jack the right side up and place the jack stand first and the left side.
Is there a center jack point under the hook and show a pic of it?

thanks a lot...

I put all my cars (including the honda) on pairs of jackstands all the time. The warning may be referring to jacking front and rear, but I do that all the time as well. Got one on 4 jackstands in my driveway right now...

Just be sure to put them under your torque boxes so your car doesn't collapse sheet metal and drop on top of you.
