Features of your vehicle
Hood open warning
The hood warning message will
appear on the LCD display when
hood is open.
The warning chime will operate when
the vehicle is being driven at or above
2 mph (3 km/h) with the hood open.
Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check the
following:
All filler caps in the engine com-
partment must be correctly
installed.
Gloves, rags or any other com-
bustible material must be
removed from the engine com-
partment.
2. Lower the hood until it is about 30
cm above the closed position and
let it drop. Make sure that it locks
into place.
3. Check that the hood has engaged
properly. If the hood can be raised
slightly, it is not properly engaged.
Open it again and close it with a lit-
tle more force.

WARNING - Fire risk
Do not leave gloves, rags or any
other combustible material in the
engine compartment. Doing so
may cause a heat-induced fire.
WARNING - Unsecured
engine hood
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 driv-
en, causing a total loss of visi-
bility, which might result in an
accident.
CAUTION - Hood
obstruction
Before closing the hood, ensure
that all obstructions are
removed from the hood open-
ing. Closing the hood with an
obstruction present in the hood
opening may result in property
damage.
