lowing:
ment must be correctly installed.
bustible material must be removed
from the engine compartment.

from the hood opening. Closing
the hood with an obstruction
present in the hood opening may
result in property damage or
severe personal injury.

which might result in an accident.
The support rod must be inserted completely into the hole whenev-
er you inspect the engine com-
partment. This will prevent the
hood from falling and possibly
injuring you.
