Secure the hood support.
Closing
To close the hood:
1. Before closing the hood, be
sure all the filler caps are
closed properly. Then, lift the
hood to relieve pressure on the
hood prop. Remove the hood
prop from the slot on the
underside of the hood and
return the prop to its retainer.
The prop rod must click into
place when returning it to the
retainer to prevent hood
damage.
2. Lower the hood 30 cm above
the vehicle and release it so it
fully latches. Check to make
sure the hood is closed and
repeat the process if
necessary.
Warning
Always observe the following
precautions:
Pull on the front edge of the
hood to make sure it is
latched securely before you
drive your vehicle.
Do not pull the hood release
handle while your vehicle is
moving.
Do not move your vehicle
with the hood open. An
open hood will obscure the
driver's vision.
