How do you open and close the bonnet on the BMW X3?

Model: BMW X3 F25, MK 2 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Body

The guide shows the procedure for opening and closing the bonnet of all BMW vehicles; in fact, the procedure is standard for the automaker. The first operation to be performed is to secure the vehicle. At this point, it is necessary to pull the lever located under the dashboard on the driver's side to release the first stage of the lock and lift the bonnet from its fully closed position. At this point, as the lock is still engaged, it is necessary to pull the opening lever a second time. This completely disengages the luggage compartment lid from the lock and allows it to be opened. To close the bonnet again, it is sufficient to accompany the bonnet in closing and applying a slight pressure to make the closure fully tighten.
