Hood Release - Pontiac 2007 G5 Owner's Manual

Hood Release

To open the hood, do the following.
1. Pull the interior hood
release lever with
this symbol on it. It
is located under the
instrument panel on
the driver's side of
the vehicle.
2. Then go to the front of the vehicle and push
the secondary hood release lever to the left.
It is located under the front center of the hood
toward the driver's side of the vehicle.
3. After you have partially lifted the hood, a gas
strut will automatically take over to lift and
hold the hood in the fully open position.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler
caps are on properly. Lower the hood until the
lifting force of the strut is reduced, then release
the hood to latch fully. Check to make sure the
hood is closed and repeat the process if
necessary.
