3. Lift the hood and release the hood prop
rod from its retainer, in the front of the
engine compartment. Securely insert the
rod end into the slot marked with an
arrow, on the underside of the hood.
To close the hood:
1. Before closing the hood, be sure all filler
caps are on properly, and all tools are
removed.
2. Lift the hood and remove the hood prop
rod from the underside of the hood.
Return the prop rod to its retainer. The
prop rod must click into place when
returning it to the retainer to prevent
hood damage.
3. Lower the hood 20 cm (8 in) above the
vehicle and release it. Check to make
sure the hood is latched completely.
Repeat this process with additional force
if necessary.

Warning
Do not drive the vehicle if the hood is
not latched completely. The hood could
open fully, block your vision, and cause a
crash. You or others could be injured.
Always close the hood completely before
driving.
