Warning
For vehicles with auto engine stop/
start, turn the vehicle off before
opening the hood. If the vehicle is
on, the engine will start when the
hood is opened. You or others could
be injured.
{
Warning
Components under the hood can
get hot from running the engine. To
help avoid the risk of burning
unprotected skin, never touch these
components until they have cooled,
and always use a glove or towel to
avoid direct skin contact.
Clear any snow from the hood before
opening.
To open the hood:
1. Pull the hood release handle with
the
i symbol. It is on the lower
left side of the instrument panel.
2. Go to the front of the vehicle and
locate the secondary release lever
under the front center of the hood.
Push the secondary hood release
lever to the right to release.
3. After you have partially lifted the
hood, the gas strut system will
automatically lift the hood and
hold it in the fully open position.
To close the hood:
1. Before closing the hood, be sure all
filler caps are on properly, and all
tools are removed.
2. Pull the hood down until the strut
system is no longer holding up
the hood.
3. Allow the hood to fall. Check to
make sure the hood is latched
completely. Repeat this process
with additional force if necessary.
{
Warning
Do not drive the vehicle if the hood
is not latched completely. The hood
could open fully, block your vision,
and cause a crash. You or others
could be injured. Always close the
hood completely before driving.
