Engine Hood Release Lever - Chevrolet Tavera Owner's Manual

Engine hood release lever

To raise the engine hood, unlock the hood lock by pulling the release lever under
the instrument panel on the driver's side and unlock the safety catch under the
engine hood. Raise the hood all the way up.
To make the hood stay in position, be sure the support rod end engages in the
hole in the hood reinforcement. To close, remove the support rod end from the
hole in the hood reinforcement and put the support rod back into the clip on the
deflector panel. Then lower the engine hood, allowing it to drop from a height.
Make sure the hood is locked firmly in place.
WARNING
Pull on the front edge of the hood to make sure it is latched securely before you
drive your vehicle.
Do not pull the hood release handle while your vehicle is moving.
Do not move your vehicle with the hood open. An open hood will obscure the
driver's vision.
