To open the hood
Pull the release handle (located under the left side
of the dash).
Lift the hood slightly, insert a hand under the
center line of the hood and depress the safety
catch handle. Open the hood.
WARNING!
Check that the hood locks properly when
closed.
The hood opens normally to an angle of
approximately 55°. To open it to a completely
vertical position, press both red catches upward as
shown in the illustration. Make sure that the
catches return to their normal position. When
closing the hood, lift it slightly first and then press
the catches downward.
Ensure adequate clearance in low-roof garages to
avoid damaging the hood.
