Checking
Things Under
the
Hood
Then
go
to the front
of
the
vehicle and release the
secondary hood release.
Things that burn can get on hot engine parts and
start
a
fire. These include liquids like gasoline,
oil, coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer and
other fluids, and plastic or rubber. You or others
could be burned. Be careful not to drop or spill
things that will burn onto
a
hot engine.
To
open the hood, first
pull
the handle inside the vehicle
on
the lower driver’s side of
the instrument panel.
Lift
the hood, release
the
hood prop from its retainer and
put the hood prop into the
slot
in
the hood. You may
have
a
lamp that comes
on
when
you
lift
the
hood.
