GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 101
HOOD
OPENING THE HOOD
Release both of the outside hood latches.
Hood Latch Locations
Raise the hood slightly, and place a hand palm-side down
in the center of the hood opening. Locate the safety latch
in the middle, and push the latch to the right to open.
Place Hand In Hood Opening
Remove the support rod from the hood, and insert it into
the radiator crossmember.
NOTE:
Vehicle must be at a stop and the gear selector must
be in PARK.
You may have to push down slightly on the hood before
pushing the safety latch.
While lifting the hood, use both hands.
Before lifting the hood, check that the wiper arms are
not in motion and not in the lifted position.
CLOSING THE HOOD
To close the hood, remove the support rod from the
radiator crossmember, and install into the clip on the
hood. Lower the hood slowly. Secure both of the hood
latches.
TAILGATE
OPENING
Tailgate Release Handle
To open the tailgate, pull the release handle located on
the center of the tailgate and guide it to the lowered
position.
The tailgate is dampened to provide a slower, more
controlled lowering.
WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your
vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision.
Failure to follow this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
