Park the vehicle, and set the
parking brake. Pull the hood
release handle located under the
lower left corner of the dashboard.
The hood will pop up slightly.
Put your fingers between the front
edge of the hood and the front
grille to locate the hood latch
handle. Push this handle up until it
releases the hood. Lift the hood.
If the hood latch handle moves
stiffly, or if you can open the hood
without lifting the handle, the
mechanism should be cleaned and
lubricated (see page ).
Lift the hood up most of the way.
The hydraulic supports will lift it

up.
Lower the hood to about a foot (30
cm) above the fender, then press
down firmly with your hands. Make
sure it is securely latched.
