Hood Release
To open the hood, do the following:
1. Pull the hood
release handle with
this symbol on it.
It is located
under the instrument
panel on the
driver’s side.
2. Go to the front of the vehicle and push the
underhood release to the right. It is located
near the center of the hood, above the grille.
3. Lift the hood.
4. Pull up on the hood prop to release it from its
storage clip.
The hood prop may be hot due to increased
engine temperatures under the hood, so
be careful when handling it. Use your hood
prop sleeve when handling the hood prop.
5. Put the end of the hood prop into the slot in
the underside of the hood, on the driver’s
side of the vehicle. It is marked by an arrow.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps
are on properly. Lift the hood to relieve pressure
on the hood prop. Remove the hood prop from the
slot in the hood and return the prop to its
retainer. Then let the hood down and close it
firmly.
