1. To open the hood, pull the hood latch handle towards you.
2. While pushing the safety lever up, raise the hood.
3. Remove the support rod from the retainer on the hood.
4. Support the hood with a support rod.
To close the hood, remove the support rod and secure it in the retainer. Slowly lower the hood to a position 30 cm above the closed position and release the hood so that it falls under its own weight. Make sure the hood is securely locked.
Attention: Before closing the hood, make sure you remove the support rod.
Warning:
- Always make sure the hood is securely closed before driving. If the hood is not fully closed, it may open unexpectedly while the vehicle is moving, resulting in complete loss of visibility, which in turn could lead to an accident (accidents).
- When you open the hood, always insert the support rod into the hole provided for this purpose. This will prevent the rod from slipping and possibly causing injury to you.
- Do not drive the vehicle while the hood is open, as this will obstruct visibility and the hood may fall and be damaged.
