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.
