The following plate is applied inside the engine
compartment fig. 104:

it.

If it is not perfectly closed, do not try to press the
bonnet down but open it and repeat the procedure.
For safety reasons, the bonnet must
always be properly closed while driving.
Therefore, make sure that the bonnet is
properly closed and that the lock is engaged. If
you discover during travel that the lock is not
fully engaged, stop immediately and close
the bonnet in the correct manner.
