Before closing the engine hood, make sure you do not leave any tools, rags, etc. inside. Then lower the hood and make sure it is firmly in place. If necessary, gently press on the front edge to secure the hood (pic. 1.40).
Warning! Before driving, make sure the hood is closed and securely locked. Otherwise, the hood may open unexpectedly while driving and cause an accident.
