Operating the Hood when there is no
Electrical Power
The manual release cable should only be
used for service and/or emergency use, such
as loss of vehicle electrical power. Do not
store any cargo in the area near the hood
release cable.
To open the hood:
1. Firmly pull the hood release cable twice
to release the hood. It is on the lower
left side of the instrument panel.
3. Go to the front of the vehicle and lift
the hood to the desired height.
To close the hood:
1. Before closing the hood, make sure all
cargo is properly stowed and does not
go above or across the hood seal.
2. Pull the hood down until it is secured in
the latch.
3. Check to make sure the hood is latched
completely. Push down on the hood to
latch if it does not latch completely.
Repeat this step with additional force if
necessary.
When the hood is not latched, a message
will display on the Driver Information Center
(DIC) and the vehicle will not be able to
shift out of park. To override this function,
press and hold the shift button and brake
pedal until the DIC message shifter unlock
complete is displayed. The vehicle s speed
will be limited to 42 km/h (26 mph) when
the hood is not completely closed.
If the vehicle has lost power, and the hood
is open when the power is restored, the
power hood and power closing latch will not
operate. To allow powered hood operation
again, the hood must be manually closed
and fully latched.
Warning
Do not drive the vehicle if the hood is
not latched completely. The hood could
open fully, block your vision, and cause a
crash. You or others could be injured.
Always close the hood completely before
driving.
Emergency Hood Release Button
The underhood compartment is equipped
with a glow-in-the-dark emergency hood
release button. This button will glow
following exposure to light. Press the button
to open the hood from inside the underhood
compartment.
