Hood Release
To open the hood, do the following.
1. Pull the interior hood
release lever with
this symbol on it.
It is located under
the instrument panel
on the driver’s
side of the vehicle.
2. Then go to the front of the vehicle and push
the secondary hood release lever to the left.
It is located under the front center of the hood
toward the driver’s side of the vehicle.
3. After you have partially lifted the hood, a gas strut
will automatically take over to lift and hold the
hood in the fully open position.
Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps
are on properly. Lower the hood until the lifting
force of the strut is reduced, then release the hood
to latch fully. Check to make sure the hood is
closed and repeat the process if necessary.
