Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check the
following:
• All filler caps in engine compart-
ment must be correctly installed.
• Gloves, rags or any other com-
bustible material must be removed
from the engine compartment.
2. Return the support rod to its clip to
prevent it from rattling.
3. Lower the hood halfway (lifted
approximately 30cm from the
closed position) and push down to
securely lock in place. Then double
check to be sure the hood is secure.
If the hood can be raised slightly, it is
not securely locked. Open it again
and close it with more force.
Tailgate
Opening the tailgate
Make sure the vehicle is in P (Park)
and set the parking brake.
Then do one of the following:
1. Unlock all doors with the Door
Unlock button on your remote key or
smart key. Press the tailgate handle
button and open the tailgate.
2. Press and hold the Tailgate Unlock
button on the remote key or smart
key. Press the tailgate handle but-
ton and open the tailgate.

•
Before closing the hood,
ensure all obstructions are
removed from around the
hood opening.
•
Always double check to be
sure that the hood is firmly
latched before driving away.
Check there is no hood open
warning light or message dis-
played on the instrument clus-
ter. If the hood is not latched
while the vehicle is moving, the
chime will sound to warn the
driver the hood is not fully
latched. Driving with the hood
opened may cause a total loss
of visibility, which might result
in an accident.
•
Do not move the vehicle with
the hood in the raised posi-
tion, as vision is obstructed,
which might result in an acci-
dent, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
