To open the hood of a Geely car, follow these steps: 1. Pull the hood release lever located at the lower left side of the driver's dashboard. 2. Push the hood safety latch handle, located in the middle left of the radiator grille, to the right to release it. 3. Lift the hood and secure it with the support rod. Geely car models include Bin Yue, Bo Yue, Hao Yue, Bo Rui, and Bin Rui. Taking the 2021 Bo Rui Pilot Edition as an example, it is a mid-size sedan with body dimensions of 4986mm in length, 1861mm in width, and 1513mm in height, a wheelbase of 2870mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters.
Hi, as a long-time Geely owner, I'd like to share some experience. Opening the hood is actually quite simple: First sit in the driver's seat, locate a small lever near the left footrest area – usually hidden below the steering wheel or near the pedals – pull it once (you'll hear a click indicating the main latch is released). Then exit the vehicle, walk to the front, gently lift the hood to create a small gap, slide your fingers in to find a secondary handle or button, press or slide it to fully open. Key reminders: Never rush to open the hood when the engine is hot – wait a few minutes for cooling as high-temperature components may burn your hands; Also regularly check these latches for jamming to prevent water accumulation or dust from complicating operation. When buying a new Geely, practice the steps several times for familiarity – safety first!
As a new driver, I spent a long time figuring out how to open the hood of my Geely. Here's the method: Inside the car, under the driver's seat, feel for a small lever near your left leg. Pull it up with noticeable resistance until you hear a click, indicating it's unlocked. Then, exit the vehicle and locate a small hook or safety latch at the front of the hood—manually release it to lift the hood. Take your time, especially as a beginner, to avoid overlooking engine cooling and prevent burns. If you can't find the lever, consult the user manual, as different Geely models like the Boyue or Emgrand may vary slightly. Always ensure the engine is off and the car is on level ground before proceeding—safety first. After opening, check fluid levels and perform routine maintenance.
