How to Open the Bonnet of the Dacia Sandero?

Model: Dacia Sandero B8 - Years 2012-2020
Part: Checks and maintenance

To open the bonnet of the Dacia Sandero, you first need to go inside the cabin to locate the lever that unlocks the catch: this will be found at the bottom left of the dashboard, near the steering column. Pulling it will unlock the bonnet catch: then you will need to reach under the bonnet to move the mechanism that still holds the catch locked. Once the lock is moved, you will be able to lift the bonnet to access the components in the engine bay.
