- Pull the hood release lever located under the driver’s side dash.
- Walk to the front of the vehicle.
- Slide your hand under the slightly ajar hood.
- Push the safety latch toward the passenger side of the vehicle.
- Lift the hood.
Note: You will need to open the hood anytime you check the oil, add window washer fluid, check coolant levels, and do other basic maintenance tasks.
Closing the Hood
When closing the hood, do not slam it down. Slamming it down can cause damage to your car. Instead, lower the hood and press firmly down to engage both latches.
