As a long-time owner of the Roewe RX5, popping the hood requires first finding the release handle near your left leg in the driver's seat - give it a firm pull until you hear a 'click'. After exiting the vehicle, locate the central gap in the hood where you'll feel a metal latch inside. Push it leftward while simultaneously lifting the hood with your other hand. The trickiest part is the support rod concealed inside the hood - you'll need to position it vertically into its slot. Important reminder: never attempt this when the engine's hot - last time I waited five minutes after turning off the engine and still nearly got scalded by steam. Mastering this skill lets you top up windshield washer fluid yourself, saving trips to overcrowded repair shops.
