Safety: Active engine hood
It is possible to continue driving after the hood has
been triggered in order to have it reset at a qualified
workshop. If the hood release handle is pulled, the
hood must be reset before the vehicle can be driven
further. The multifunction display in the instrument
cluster shows a symbol indicating that the engine
hood is open.
i Note
The hood clamping lever must be disconnected
before the hood is moved to the vertical position,
and reconnected before the hood is closed.
Additional information on resetting the hood and
on continuing to drive with the hood triggered can
be found in the owner's manual.
