The following conditions may also activate the system.
• A severe impact on the underside of your vehicle.
• Driving over speed bumps at high speed, or over a large pothole.
• When the objects impact the pedestrian impact sensors.
The system may not activate if your vehicle is:
• Impacted from the rear or side.

1About the Pop-up Hood System
For the pop-up hood system to work properly:
•
Always use the same size tyres as the original. The
system may not read your vehicle speed correctly
with the different size tyres.
•
Never apply force to the system's power unit. It can
be damaged if you slam the bonnet shut.
•
Do not impact the pedestrian impact sensors in the
front bumper.
Pop-up Hood System label is found under the
bonnet:
