Closing
To close the bonnet:
1. Make sure hands and other body
parts, as well as those of other
persons, are completely away
from the engine compartment
and bonnet-to-body edges.
2. Lower the bonnet, allowing it to
drop from a height of about 30cm
(1 foot).
3. Make sure the bonnet is locked
firmly in place.
{Warning
Pull on the front edge of the bonnet
to make sure it is latched securely
before you drive your vehicle.
Do not pull the bonnet release
handle while your vehicle is
moving.
Do not move your vehicle with the
bonnet open. An open bonnet will
obscure the driver’s vision.
Operating your vehicle with the
bonnet open can lead to a collision
resulting in damage to your
vehicle, to other property, personal
injury or even death.
