1. Pull the hood lock release handle1
located below the driver side instru-
ment panel until the hood springs up
slightly.
2. Locate the lever
2in between the
hood and grille and push the lever side-
ways with your fingertips and raise the
hood
3.
When closing the hood, lower the hood to
approximately 12 in (30 cm) above the latch
and release it. This allows proper engage-
ment of the hood latch.
WARNING
∙ Make sure the hood is completely closed and latched before driving.
Failure to do so could cause the hood
to fly open and result in an accident.
∙ If you see steam or smoke coming from the engine compartment, to
avoid injury do not open the hood.
WARNING
∙ Always be sure the lif tgate has beenclosed securely to prevent it from
opening while driving.
∙ Do not drive with the lif tgate open. This could allow dangerous exhaust
gases to be drawn into the vehicle. For
additional information, refer to “Ex-
haust gas (carbon monoxide)” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not leave
children, people who require the as-
sistance of others or pets unattended
in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside a closed vehicle on a
warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of
injury or death to people and pets.
∙ Always be sure that hands and feet are clear of the door frame to avoid
injury while closing the lif tgate.
