Opening the bonnet
•
Swivel the Ford badge in the
radiator grille to the side and turn
the key first anticlockwise
.
Raise the bonnet slightly and turn
the key fully clockwise
to open
the bonnet.
To prevent damage to, or
loss of the key, remove the
key immediately after opening
and swivel the Ford badge back.
•
Raise the bonnet and support it
in the retainer
ensuring it is
secure.
To close, replace the support strut
in its retaining clip, lower the
bonnet and allow it to drop into the
catch for the last 20 − 30 cm.
Always check to ensure that the
bonnet lock is fully engaged.
