1. Pull the hood lock release handle 1 located below the instrument panel; the hood will then spring up slightly.
2. Pull the lever2 up at the front of the hood with your fingertips and raise the hood.
3. When closing the hood, slowly close the hood down and make sure it locks into place.

• Make sure the hood is completely closed and latched before driving.

Failure to do so could cause the hood to fly open and result in an accident.
• If you see steam or smoke coming from the engine compartment, to avoid injury do not open the hood.
