Release the engine hood and then press
and hold the front edge of the engine hood
at the two radiator grilles by the palms of
your hands evenly. Press it down firmly until
you hear a click. This indicates that the
engine hood is closed. After the engine
hood is closed, attempt to lift the front edge
of the engine hood up to verify if it is fully
locked.
Do not drive while the engine hood is
not correctly closed. The engine hood
may suddenly open and block the driver's
vision, causing vehicle damage or other
property damage, or personal injury, even
death.
