Hood Release - Chevrolet 2009 TrailBlazer Owner's Manual

Hood Release

To open the hood:
1. Pull the handle with
this symbol on it. It is
located inside the
vehicle under the
instrument panel
on the driver side.
2. Then go to the front of the vehicle and release the
secondary hood release.
3. Lift the hood, release the prop rod from its retainer,
and put the prop rod into the slot in the hood.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps are
on properly. Then lift the hood to relieve pressure on the
prop rod. Remove the prop rod from its slot in the hood
and return the prop to its retainer. Lower the hood 6 to
8 inches (15 to 20 cm) above the vehicle and release it
to latch fully. Check to make sure the hood is closed and
repeat the process if necessary.
