Hood
To open the hood, pull back on
the handle located under the
dash on the driver's side.
The hood latch is spring-loaded, so the hood will pop up slight-
ly. Release the safety catch under the front center of the hood
by pushing the rubber-tipped handle up. Lift the hood and prop
it open with the support rod. To close, take the support rod
down, place it back in its holder, lower the hood until it is ap-
proximately one foot from the closed position, then let it drop.
Be sure the hood is securely latched before driving away.
Parking Brake
To apply the parking brake, pull
up on the lever. To release it,
pull up slightly, push the but-
ton, and lower the lever; when
fully released,
warning light will go out.
