Lift the hood slightly, insert a hand under the center line of the hood and depress the safety catch handle. Open the hood.
WARNING!
Check that the hood locks properly when
closed.
The hood opens normally to an angle of approximately 55°. To open it a completely vertical position, press both red catches upward as
shown in the illustration. Make sure that the catches return to their normal position. When closing the hood, lift it slightly first and then
press the catches downward.
Ensure adequate clearance in low-roof garages to avoid damaging the hood.
