HOOD
USEFUL TIPS
Before opening the hood, make sure
its housing is not obstructed by any-
thing.
To prevent damage to the window
seals, open and close the hood either
with the windows right down or with
the doors open.
Do not fold the hood when it is wet:
it may get damaged if it is left in its
housing for a long period.
Do not rest weights on the open or
closed hood: the canvas and the frame
could get damaged.
Do not open or close the hood
when the outside temperature is very
low.
Snow or ice must be removed with
objects that do not leave scratches.
Take the car to a Fiat Dealership
for any repairs or maintenance.
OPENING
1) Lower the sun visors.
2) Grip the handles, lower them,
turn them towards the inside of the
car fig. 54 and raise the front part of
the hood from the windscreen tran-
som.
3) Lower both the side windows or
keep the doors open.
4) Working from the outside of the
car on the driver’s side, fold the hood
back a little until you are able to raise
the rear of the hood, as well. Make
sure the rear window folds properly
at the centre using the palm of your
hand fig. 55.
IMPORTANT Make sure that no
creases from in the rear window while
you are doing this.
Make sure the boot lid is
completely closed to
avoid interference with
the hood housing cover. (A beep
will however warn you when you
try to open the hood housing cov-
er when the boot is not closed
properly).
Only open or close the
hood while the car is sta-
tionary.
