tor grille.
The hood will be automatically held
open at shoulder height.
Closing 왘 Let the hood drop from a height of
approximately 1 ft (30 cm).
The hood will lock audibly.
왘 Check to make sure the hood is fully
closed.

Warning! G
When closing the hood, use extreme cau-
tion not to catch hands or fingers. Be care-
ful that you do not close the hood on
anyone.
Make sure that the hood is securely en-
gaged before driving off. Do not continue
driving if the hood can no longer engage
after an accident, for example. The hood
could otherwise come loose while the vehi-
cle is in motion and endanger you and/or
others.
