TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE HOOD
To open the hood, two latches must be released.
1. Pull the hood release lever located
below the steering wheel at the base
of the instrument panel.
2. Reach into the opening beneath the
center of the hood and push the safety
latch lever to the left to release it,
before raising the hood.
WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully
latched, it could open when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision. Failure
to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to close it. Use a firm downward
push at the front center of the hood to ensure that both latches engage.
