Hold the bonnet up with one hand and with the other
remove rod B from its recess D; then, fit it back into its
catch C.
Lower the bonnet to approximately 20 centimetres above
the engine compartment and let it come down. Make sure
the bonnet is properly locked and not just secured in safe-
ty position. In this case, do not press the bonnet down, rather
lift it again and repeat the procedure.
For safety reasons, the bonnet must al-
ways be properly closed while the car is
travelling. Make sure that the bonnet is properly
closed and that the lock is engaged. Should you
notice that the bonnet is not properly secured
while travelling, stop the car immediately and lose
the bonnet safely.
WARNING
Pay attention to scarves, ties and other
loose fitting garments. If they accidental-
ly touch moving parts, they may easily get caught
up with serious risks for those who wear them.
