CLOSING
Proceed as follows:
hold the bonnet up with one hand
and with the other remove rod (C)
fig. 114 from recess (E) and fit it back
into its catch (D) fig. 113;
lower the bonnet to approximately
20 centimetres from the engine
compartment and let it drop. Make
sure that the bonnet is completely
closed and not only fastened by the
locking device by trying to open it. If it
is not perfectly closed, do not try to
press the bonnet down but open it and
repeat the procedure.
WARNING Always check that the
bonnet is closed correctly to prevent
it from opening while the vehicle is
travelling.

correct manner.

Perform these operations only when
the vehicle is stationary.

Use both hands to lift the bonnet.
Before lifting, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not raised from the
windscreen, that the vehicle is stationary
and that the parking brake is engaged.
