Hood

1 Pull the hood lock release handle located
below the driver side instrument panel. The
hood will spring up slightly.
2 Push the lever at the front of the hood to the
side as illustrated with your fingertips and
raise the hood.
When closing the hood, lower it slowly and make sure it locks into place.
WARNING
● 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.
