How to Open the Front Hood of a Lavida XR?
2 Answers
To open the front hood of a Lavida XR: 1. Locate the handle on the left side of the driver's seat; 2. Pull the handle down, and the front hood will automatically open slightly; 3. Reach into the gap to find the spring latch and release it. Taking the 2017 Lavida XR Comfort Edition as an example, it is a compact car with dimensions of 4445mm in length, 1765mm in width, and 1485mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm. The 2017 Lavida XR Comfort Edition is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 81kW at 5000rpm.
Opening the hood of the Lavida is actually quite simple. I've done it several times during my last car repair. There's a lever near your left foot in the driver's seat—just pull it and you'll hear a click, which means the hood pops open slightly. Walk to the front of the car, reach into the gap, and locate a yellow lever in the middle. Push it to the left, and the hood will lift up. Remember to use the support rod to secure it in the small hole—the design is quite user-friendly, as the rod has a rubber tip to prevent scratching the paint. If you're a new owner and can't find the right spot, don't worry—practice a couple of times in good daylight, and you'll get the hang of it. Just be sure the support rod is firmly locked in place, and be cautious when opening the hood in the rain to avoid water flowing into the engine bay.
