Hood

To unlock the hood

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

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

fore working in the engine compart-
ment.
Always disconnect the battery before
working on any electrical systems or
equipment. Comply with all applicable
instructions and warnings. Failure to
work in an informed, professional man-

materials constitutes a safety hazard for
vehicle occupants and other road
users. If you are not familiar with the
