CAUTION
Do not let the hood free-fall to the full-open
position. To do so could cause damage to the
hood or hood straps.
3.
Standing in front of the hood, raise the rear of
the hood upward until it reaches the over-center
position (45 degrees from vertical). Then slowly
bring it to a stop.
To Close the Hood
1.
Push the hood over center.
2.
As the hood goes over center, the damper
automatically slows its rate of descent. If needed,
you can also slow its rate of descent with your
hand.
3.
Make sure the hood is flush with the cowl, then
secure the hood by engaging both hood hold-
down latches.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that both hold-down
latches are fully engaged before operating the
vehicle.
