NOTE
To prevent damage to the engine hood and
wipers, make sure the wipers are at resting
position when you open the engine hood.
Support the engine hood with the hood prop.
Insert the hood prop securely in the opening
under the hood marked with an arrow.
CAUTION
Always insert the support prop into the hole
specially made for it. Propping the engine
hood at any other place could cause the prop
to slip out and lead to an accident.
The hood prop can fall out if the hood is
lifted by a strong wind.
