Use the engine hood release lever (located
under the instrument panel near the driver’s
door) to unlock the engine hood.
Pull the lever toward you to release the
engine hood latch.
Release the lever and lift the engine hood.
Support the engine hood with the hood prop.
Insert the hood prop securely in the opening
under the hood marked with an arrow.
Unlatch the prop from the engine hood and
put it back in its retainer.
Slowly lower the engine hood about 8 inches
(20 cm), then let it drop from its own weight.
Engine hood
To open
Never use the release lever to unlatch the
engine hood while the vehicle is in motion.
Do not drive your vehicle unless the
engine hood is locked.
To prevent damage to the engine hood and
wipers, make sure the wipers are at resting
position when you open the engine hood.
Always insert the support prop into the hole
specially made for it. Propping the engine
hood at any other place could cause the prop
to slip out and lead to an accident.
The hood prop can fall out if the hood is
lifted by a strong wind.
To close
Be careful not to trap your hands or fingers
when closing the engine hood.
