certain all filler caps are in place and
all loose items (e.g. tools, oil
containers, etc.) have been removed.
- Lift the hood, grasp the padded area on
the support rod, and secure the support
rod in the clip. Verify that the support
rod is secured in the clip before closing
the hood.

deformed.
With the vehicle parked, pull the release handle to unlock the hood.
Insert your hand into the hood
opening, slide the latch lever to the
right, and lift up the hood...
