Opening the Hood

NOTICE

Do not open the hood when the wiper arms are
raised.

The hood will strike the wipers, and may damage
either the hood or the wipers.

When closing the hood, check that the hood is
securely latched.

If the hood latch lever moves stiffly, or if you can
open the hood without lifting the lever, the latch
mechanism should be cleaned and lubricated.
