latch (1) inside of the hood center and
lift the hood (2).
After the hood has been lifted halfway,
it will raise completely by itself.
Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check in and
around the vehicle compartment to
ensure the following:
- Any tools or other loose objects
are removed from the motor
compartment area or hood
opening area
- All glove, rags, or other
combustible material is removed
from the motor compartment
- All filler caps are tightly and
correctly installed
2. Lower the hood halfway (lifted
approximately 30 cm (12 in.) from the
closed position) and push down to
securely lock in place. Then double
check to be sure the hood is secure.
If the hood can be raised slightly, it is
not securely locked. Open it again and
close it with more force.
WARNING

[Before closing the hood, ensure
all obstructions are removed from
around the hood opening.

[Always double check to be sure that
the hood is firmly latched before
driving away. Check there is no
hood open warning light or message
displayed on the instrument cluster.
Driving with the hood opened may
cause a total loss of visibility, which
might result in an accident.

[Do not move the vehicle with the
hood in the raised position, as vision
is obstructed, which might result in
an accident, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
