2. Standing in front of the car, put
your fingers under the front edge
of the hood to the right of center.
Slide your hand to the Ieft until
you feel the hood latch handle.
Push this handle up until it
releases the hood. Lift the hood.
If you can open the hood without
lifting the hood latch handle, or
the hood latch handIe moves
stiffly or does not spring back as
before, the mechanism should be
cleaned and lubricated (see page

3. Lift the hood up most of the way.
The hydraulic supports will lift it
up the rest of the way and hold it
up.
To close the hood, lower it to about a
foot (30 cm) above the fender, then
press down firmly with your hands.
After closing the hood, make sure it
is securely latched.
