Here's a more precise breakdown:
1. Look to the left of the steering wheel. It's usually in the lower part of the dashboard, where your left knee would be.
2. Look for a small lever with a symbol that resembles a hood or an arrow pointing upwards. It might be a little hidden, so you might need to feel around a bit.
Once you've located the lever, pull it towards you. This should release the hood latch and allow you to open the hood.
Important note: You might need to use a second hand to lift the hood once you release the latch. The hood may be heavy and could slam down if you aren't careful.
