3. Go to the front of the vehicle, raise the
hood slightly, push up the secondary
latch (1) inside of the hood center
and lift the hood (2). After it has been
raised about halfway, it will raise
completely by itself.
Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check in and
around the engine compartment to
ensure the following:
-Any tools or other loose objects are
removed from the engine room area
or hood opening area
-All glove, rags, or other combustible
material is removed from the engine
compartment
-All filler caps are tightly and
correctly installed
2. Lower the hood halfway (lifted
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) from
the closed position) and push down
to securely lock in place. Then double
check to be sure the hood is secure.
If the hood can be raised slightly, it is
not securely locked. Open it again and
close it with more force.
WARNING
• Before closing the hood, ensure
all obstructions are removed from
around the hood opening.
• Always double check to be sure that
the hood is firmly latched before
driving away. Check there is no
hood open warning light or message
displayed on the instrument cluster.
Driving with the hood opened may
cause a total loss of visibility, which
might result in an accident.
• Do not move the vehicle with the
hood in the raised position, as vision
is obstructed, which might result in
an accident, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
