To open the hood
Pull the release handle (located under the left side of the dash).
Lift the hood slightly, insert a hand under the center line of the hood and depress the safety-catch handle.
Open the hood.
Check that the hood locks properly when closed.
The normal opening angle for the hood is approximately 55°. By turning the catches or the hinges as
illustrated, the hood can be opened to the vertical position. The catches will return to their normal
positions when the hood is closed.
Take care in low-roof garages!
