After inserting the support bar into the
slot, make sure the bar supports the bon-
net securely from falling down on to your
head or body.
To close
1. While supporting the bonnet, remove the sup-
port bar from the bonnet arm hole and secure
it to the clip.
2. Slowly lower the bonnet to a position about
30 cm above the closed position, then let it
drop.

3. Make sure the bonnet is securely locked by
softly lifting the centre of the bonnet.
NOTE
l If this does not close the bonnet, release it
from a slightly higher position.
l Do not press down the bonnet hard with a
hand as it may damage the bonnet.
CAUTION
l
Be careful that hands or fingers are not
trapped when closing the bonnet.
l Before driving, make sure that the bon-
net is securely locked. An incompletely
locked bonnet can suddenly open while
driving. This can be extremely dangerous.
