Closing the bonnet
-
All filler caps in engine compartment must be correctly installed.
-
Gloves, rags or any other combustible material must be removed from the engine compartment.
If the bonnet can be raised slightly, it is not properly engaged. Open it again and close it with a little more force.
-
Before closing the bonnet, ensure that all obstructions are removed from the bonnet opening. Closing the bonnet with an obstruction present in the bonnet opening may result in property damage or severe personal injury.
-
Do not leave gloves, rags or any other combustible material in the engine compartment. Doing so may cause a heatinduced fire.
-
Always double check to be sure that the bonnet is firmly latched before driving away. If it is not latched, the bonnet could fly open whilst the vehicle is being driven, causing a total loss of visibility, which might result in an accident.
-
The support rod must be inserted completely into the hole provided in the bonnet whenever you inspect the engine compartment. This will prevent the bonnet from falling and possibly injuring you.
-
Do not move the vehicle with the bonnet raised. The view will be blocked and the bonnet could fall or be damaged.
