Hood Release - Pontiac G3 2009 Owner's Manual

Hood Release

To open the hood:
2. Then go to the front of the vehicle and lift up on the
secondary hood release lever, located under the
front center of the hood.
1. Pull the hood release
handle inside the
vehicle. It is located on
the lower left side of the
instrument panel.
3. Lift the hood and release the hood prop from its
retainer located on the underside of the hood.
4. Securely place the hood prop into the slot on the
inner fender.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps are
on properly. Then lift the hood to relieve pressure on the
hood prop. Remove the hood prop from the slot in the
inner fender and return the prop to its retainer. Lower the
hood 12 inches (30 cm) above the vehicle and release
it so it fully latches. Check to make sure the hood is
closed and repeat the process if necessary.
