How to Open the Front Hood of Geely Boyue?
2 Answers
Method to open the front hood of Geely Boyue: Pull the unlock button located at the lower left of the dashboard on the driver's side inside the car. Just press it gently, and the hood will slightly pop up with a click sound to unlock. However, pressing the hood unlock button inside the car alone does not fully open the hood. There is an additional latch located at the center of the front hood underneath. Only after releasing this latch can the engine hood be fully opened. The Geely Boyue is a compact SUV launched by Geely Auto. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 4519mm in length, 1831mm in width, 1694mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2670mm.
I've been driving my Boyue for two years now, and opening the hood is actually quite easy, but don't forget safety first. The first step is to sit in the driver's seat and make sure the car is parked and stable—never operate it while driving. Then, near the pedal area on the left side, you can feel a plastic handle, possibly with a small engine symbol on it. Give it a firm pull, and you'll hear a 'click' as the hood unlocks. Immediately step out to the front of the car—don't take too long. There's usually a metal safety latch hidden in the gap between the hood and the front of the car. Just hook it with your finger or push it aside, and it will release. Finally, gently lift the hood and secure it with the support rod. I always take the chance to check for dust in the engine compartment to prevent the latch from getting stuck. I've even encountered situations where it froze shut in cold winter weather, so regular cleaning is important.
