The method to open the engine hood of the Mazda3 Axela is as follows: 1. Lever-type switch. This lever-type switch is usually located at the lower left corner of the driver's seat. You can pull up the lever to release the hood, then remove the engine compartment hood support rod from its fixed bracket, and finally hook the support rod into the groove of the engine compartment hood. 2. Button-type switch. The button-type switch is generally located on the panel on the left side of the center console. You can follow these steps to open the hood: (1) Pull the engine compartment hood lever, and the hood will slightly pop up. (2) Reach into the central front part of the engine compartment hood, locate the auxiliary latch handle, lift the tab upward and hold it, while simultaneously lifting the hood upward. (3) After opening the hood, take out the support rod and place one end into the support slot to hold the engine compartment hood in place.
