B570A01L-GATHOOD RELEASE
1. Pull the release knob to unlatch the hood.
2. Press the safety catch lever up and lift the
hood.
3. Raise the hood by hand.
When closing the hood, slowly close the hood
and make sure it locks into place.
WARNING:o If you open the fuel filler cap during high
ambient temperatures, a slight "pres-
sure sound" may be heard. This is nor-
mal and not a cause for concern.
Whenever you open the fuel filler cap,
turn it slowly.
o Make sure the fuel filler cap is replaced
and securely seated after fueling. Failure
to replace or fully seat the fuel filler cap
will result in fuel vapors escaping into
the atmosphere and the check engine
"MIL" indicator illuminating.
o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle
shut off when refueling.
B570A01O
!WARNING:o Always double check to be sure that the
hood is firmly latched before driving
away. If it is not latched, the hood could
fly open while the vehicle is being driven,
causing a total loss of visibility, which
might result in an accident.
o Do not move the vehicle with the hood
in the raised position, as vision is ob-
structed and the hood could fall or be
damaged.
