LOSING HE OOD
In one continuous motion, pull down on the front
edge of the hood with moderate force until the
angle is below the crossover point (where the gas
props are no longer resisting) and let the hood
continue to fall closed from its own inertia.
WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving
your vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it
could open when the vehicle is in motion and
block your vision. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious injury or death.
