Two latches must be released to open
the hood.
• From inside the vehicle, pull the hood
release lever located under the left
lower side of the dashboard.
• Move to the outside and stand in
front of the vehicle front grille.
• Slightly lift the hood and push the
safety catch as indicated by the
arrow. The safety catch is located in
the centre of the hood.
• Lift the hood completely: this
operation is facilitated by two
gas struts keeping the fully open
position.

position, the red symbol
display on the instrument cluster with
the message indicating that the hood
is open.
Closing
Lower the hood and then gently drop
it. This should secure the inclusion of
both latches.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not
slam the hood to close it.
WARNING!
•
Be sure the hood is fully latched
before driving your vehicle. If the
lid is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and
block your vision. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
• Gear shifting is always active and
may be performed even when one
or more doors, the hood or the
liftgate are open. Therefore, in these
conditions, take great care to avoid
moving the gearshift lever and so
will
accidentally engage gears.
