2 Answers
The method to open the engine hood of the Boyue is as follows: 1. Pull the engine hood release handle located under the left side of the dashboard on the driver's side inside the car, marked with this symbol. 2. Push the engine hood lock safety hook handle located in the middle of the radiator grille upwards to release it. 3. Slightly lift the engine hood, and under the action of the gas springs on both sides, the engine hood will open to its maximum position. The method to close the engine hood of the Boyue is as follows: 1. Before closing the engine hood, ensure all filler caps are properly closed. Press down on the engine hood, allowing it to fall and lock into place under its own weight. 2. After closing the engine hood, verify that it is fully locked by attempting to lift the front edge of the hood.
I have experience with opening the Bonnet of the Geely Boyue. Having driven this car for over two years, I've successfully opened it every time. First step is to sit in the driver's seat. There's a plastic handle on the lower left side of the steering wheel, possibly hidden near the pedals. Pull it gently until you hear a click, which means the first lock is released. Second step, get out and go to the front of the car. Squat down and locate the release lever under the center of the radiator grille—usually a small latch. Hook it with your finger, and the bonnet will pop up. Third step, lift the bonnet with some force as the Boyue's bonnet is quite heavy, then secure it with the manual support rod. Be careful not to operate when the engine is hot to avoid burns. I recommend applying grease to the locks every six months to prevent rust. If you encounter resistance while opening, check for debris like leaves or small stones in the lock mechanism, remove them, and try again. The whole process takes about a minute—always prioritize safety as a habit.
