and around the engine compart-
ment to ensure the following:
- Any tools or other loose objects
are removed from the engine
room area or hood opening area
- All glove, rags, or other com-
bustible material is removed
from the engine compartment
- All filler caps are tightly and cor-
rectly installed2. Lower the hood halfway (lifted
approximately 12 inches (30 cm)
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.
Liftgate
Opening the liftgate
Before attempting to open the lift-
gate, make sure the vehicle is in
PARK (P). To open the liftgate, per-
form the following:
1) Unlock the vehicle using either the
remote key fob (Key Start vehi-
cles), the Smart Key (Push Button
Start vehicles), or the Unlock but-
ton on the driver side armrest.
2) From outside the vehicle, press
the liftgate handle

played on the instrument clus-
ter. 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 posi-
tion, as vision is obstructed,
which might result in an acci-
dent, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.

ed completely into the hole pro-
vided whenever you inspect the
engine compartment. This will
prevent the hood from becom-
ing dislodged and falling and
causing potential injury.
