press the bonnet lid down but open it
and repeat the procedure.

bonnet is closed properly to avoid its
opening while the vehicle is travelling.

the car is stationary.

supporting rod is not positioned correctly.

Before lifting, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not raised from the
windscreen, that the car is stationary and
that the electric parking brake is engaged.

always be properly closed while driving.
Therefore, make sure that the bonnet
is properly closed and that the lock is
engaged. If you discover that the bonnet
is not perfectly closed while driving, stop
immediately and close the bonnet in the
correct manner.
