Hood

To unlock

Pull the lever located under the left-
hand side of the instrument panel.

Do not work on your vehicle with-
out appropriate skills. Switch off

the engine and allow it to cool down
before working in the engine compart-
ment. Always disconnect the battery be-
fore working on any electrical systems
or equipment, especially when these
are located within the engine compart-
ment. Comply with all applicable in-
structions and warnings. Failure to work
in an informed, professional manner
when servicing components and mate-
rials constitutes a safety hazard for vehi-
cle occupants and other road users. If
you are not familiar with the guidelines,
please have the operations performed
by your authorized BMW center.

Allow the hood to fall from a height of
about 12 in (30 cm) so that it audibly

travel path of the hood is clear

when it is closed, as with all closing
procedures

If it is determined that the hood is not
completely closed while driving, stop
immediately and close it securely.
