Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check the
following:
• All filler caps in engine compart-
ment must be correctly installed.
• Gloves, rags or any other com-
bustible material must be
removed from the engine com-
partment.
2. Lower the hood halfway (lifted
approximately 30cm from the closed
position) and push down to securely
lock in place. Then double check to
be sure the hood is secure.
WARNING
• Always double check to be
sure that the hood is firmly
latched before driving away.
Check there is no hood open
warning light or message dis-
played on the instrument clus-
ter. Driving with the hood
opened may cause a total loss
of visibility, which might result
in an accident.
• Do not move the vehicle with
the hood raised. The view will
be blocked and the hood could
fall or be damaged.
WARNING
When you check the engine
compartment, please make sure
your head is not injured by the
hood safety hook which is
located inside of the hood.
WARNING - Hood
• Before closing the hood,
ensure that all obstructions
are removed from the hood
opening. Closing the hood
with an obstruction present in
the hood opening may result
in property damage or severe
personal injury.
• Do not leave gloves, rags or
any other combustible materi-
al in the engine compartment.
Doing so may cause a heat-
induced fire.
