The steps to open the hood of a Buick car are: 1. Locate the hood release button below the left side of the steering wheel. 2. Pull the hood release lever upward to unlock the hood, which will slightly pop up. 3. Reach into the central front part of the hood, find the secondary hood latch handle, lift the tab to the left and hold it, then raise the hood upward. 4. After opening the hood, remove the hood support rod and insert one end into the support slot to hold the hood open. Additional information: The functions of a car hood are: 1. Airflow management. For high-speed moving objects, the air resistance and turbulence generated around the object directly affect its trajectory and speed. The hood's shape effectively adjusts the airflow direction relative to the car's movement and reduces the impact of air resistance. 2. Protection for the engine and surrounding components. Under the hood are critical parts of the vehicle, including the engine, electrical circuits, fuel system, braking system, and transmission system. These are vital to the vehicle. By enhancing the hood's strength and structure, it can effectively prevent adverse effects such as impacts, corrosion, rain, and electrical interference, ensuring the vehicle's proper operation.
