Lift the hood prop rod, clipped to the right side
(left side facing hood) of the engine compart-
ment, to secure the hood in the open position.
Place the hood prop at the location stamped

Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving
your vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it
could open when the vehicle is in motion and
