To open the hood:

1. Pull the handle with this symbol on it. It is located in front of the driver's side door frame near the floor.
2. Then go to the front of the vehicle and lift up the secondary hood release, which is located underneath the middle of the hood.



3. Lift the hood, release the hood prop from its retainer and put the hood prop into the slot in the hood.

If your vehicle has an underhood lamp, it will automatically come on and stay on until the hood is closed.

Before closing the hood, be sure all of the filler caps are on properly. Then lift the hood to relieve pressure on the hood prop. Remove the hood prop from the slot in the hood and return the prop to its retainer. Let the hood down and close it firmly.
