The following messages may appear depending
on the vehicle equipment:
HB warning! Hood is not locked. Stop vehicle
and check the lock
1) The &> symbol is not available in all countries.
The hood latch is not locked correctly. Stop im-
mediately and close the hood.
— Never open the hood when there is steam or
coolant escaping from the engine compart-
ment, because there is a risk that you could
be burned. Wait until no steam or coolant is
escaping.
~For safety reasons, the hood must always be
latched securely while driving. Because of
this, always check the hood after closing it
to make sure it is latched correctly. The
hood is latched if the front corners cannot
be lifted.
— If you notice that the hood is not latched
while you are driving, stop immediately and
close it, because driving when the hood is
not latched increases the risk of an accident.
