CAUTION
When closing the hood when it is open half way, the
hood's own weight can cause it to fall into the two
locks.
e Never put objects or your fingers near moving
parts (hinges) or under the hood.
1. Let the half-open hood fall into the two locks. If
necessary, push the hood closed with the palm
of your hand in the two lock areas.
2. Check that the hood is engaged correctly in both
locks and that the release lever (Fig. 72) is back
in its initial position.
e A warning appears on the instrument cluster if
the hood is not engaged properly. Open the hood
again and let it fall into the lock. If necessary,
push the hood closed with the palm of your hand
in the area of the lock.
