How to Open the Hood of an Accord?
2 Answers
The method to open the hood of an Accord: 1. Pull up at the position of the left foot in the cockpit until you hear a click, and the hood will open halfway; 2. Above the car logo, there is a gap in the front hood. Insert your left hand to lift the small tab upward, and then lift the hood with your right hand. The Accord's body lines are natural and smooth, and the overall shape combines fashion and dynamism without losing stability. In terms of appearance, the Accord's interior features an independent 8-inch central control screen. In terms of configuration, the Accord comes standard with tire pressure monitoring, side airbags, knee airbags, and driving mode selection. In terms of size, the car has a length, width, and height of 4930mm, 1845mm, and 1470mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2775mm.
Last time I helped my friend open the hood of his 10th-gen Accord, I found the steps were actually quite simple. First, sit in the driver's seat and locate the hood release lever—usually above the left foot area at the bottom of the dashboard, marked with an engine icon. Give it a firm pull until you hear a 'click,' which means the hood has popped open slightly. Don't rush to lift it yet! Walk to the front of the car, reach into the center gap, and you'll feel a metal latch—this is the secondary safety catch. Slide it all the way to the right, then lift the hood. Important reminder: Make sure the support rod is securely in place—I've seen people forget to fix it and get their hands hit by the falling hood. Always ensure the car is parked with the handbrake on, and it's safest to do this with the engine off.
