When closing the hood, return the hood rod to its original position. Lower the hood approximately 12 inches (30 cm) above the latch and release it. This allows proper engagement of the hood latch.
WARNING
● Make sure the hood is completely
closed and latched before driving. Failure
to do so could cause the hood to fly
open and result in an accident.
● If you see steam or smoke coming from
the engine compartment, to avoid injury
do not open the hood.
