Hood Release - GMC 2004 Canyon Owner's Manual

Hood Release

To open the hood, do the following:
1. Pull the handle located inside the vehicle on the
lower left side of the instrument panel.
2. Release the secondary latch on the hood.
The secondary latch is located below the front
center of the hood.
3. Lift the hood.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps are
on properly. Then lift the hood to relieve pressure on the
hood prop.
Remove the hood prop from the slot in the hood and
return the prop to its retainer.
Then, lower the hood down to close. It will latch when
dropped from about 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm)
without pressing on the hood.
4. Release the hood prop
from its retainer and
put the hood prop into
the slot in the hood.
