To open the bonnet of the Ford Ka, pull the red lever located inside the cabin: its position varies depending on the vehicle's steering. For left-hand drive models, the lever is found on the lower left side of the dashboard near the steering column; for right-hand drive models, the lever is located on the lower dashboard on the passenger side.

Pulling the lever will release the bonnet latch, allowing you to lift it and access the components inside.
