TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE HOOD
To open the hood, two latches must be released.
First pull the hood release lever located under the
left side of the instrument panel.
Next, push to the left the safety catch located
under the front edge of the hood, near the center.
Use the hood prop rod to secure the hood in the
open position.
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the
hood to close it. Lower the hood until it is open
approximately 30 cm (12 inches) and then drop it.
This should secure both latches. Never drive your
vehicle unless the hood is fully closed, with both
latches engaged.
WARNING!
If the hood is not fully latched, it could fly up
when the vehicle is moving and block your
forward vision. You could have a collision. Be
sure all hood latches are fully latched before
driving.
LIGHTS
All of the lights, except the hazard warning lights,
are controlled by switches left of the steering
column on the instrument panel.
Interior Lights
Interior lights are turned on when a door or liftgate
is opened, the keyless entry transmitter is acti-
vated, or when the dimmer control is moved to the
extreme top.
The interior lights will automatically turn off in
about 15 minutes if any of the following occur.
•
A door, sliding door or the liftgate is left open.
•
Any overhead reading light is left on.
•
If the dimmer control is in the extreme top
position.
