CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to
close it. Lower the hood until it is open approximately

secure both latches. Never drive your vehicle unless
the hood is fully closed, with both latches engaged.

Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your
vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision.
Failure to follow this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
