BONNET
Do not attempt to service your vehi-
cle if you do not have the required
technical background. Before working in
the engine compartment, switch off the
engine and allow it to cool down. Before
working on the electrical system, always
disconnect the battery first. For all work on
the vehicle, comply with the appropriate
information and instructions. If you are not
familiar with the guidelines, the manufac-
turer of your MINI recommends that you
have the service work performed by your
MINI Dealer. Otherwise, work improperly
carried out on the parts and components
can pose a safety hazard for vehicle occu-
pants and other road users.<

dures.
If it is determined that the bonnet is not
completely closed while driving, stop
immediately and close it securely, also refer
