Before closing the hood, make sure to stow the
prop rod in its proper location.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to
close it. Use a firm downward push at the center of
the hood to ensure that both latches engage.

vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision.
