Hood Release - Chevrolet 2009 HHR Owner's Manual

Hood Release

To open the hood, do the following.
1. Pull the interior hood
release lever with
this symbol on it. It is
located to the left of the
instrument panel on
the driver's side of the
vehicle.
3. After you have partially lifted the hood, gas struts
will automatically take over to lift and hold the
hood in the fully open position.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps
are on properly. Lower the hood until the lifting force
of the struts is reduced, then release the hood
to latch fully. Check to make sure the hood is
closed and repeat the process if necessary.
2. Then go to the front of
the vehicle and push
the secondary hood
release lever to the left.
It is located under the
front center of the
grille.
