Let's see how to open the front bonnet of a Hyundai Elantra. This operation is really easy.

Pull the lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, lift the bonnet slightly, and release the catch. Once the engine bonnet is released, lift it upwards and secure it with the prop rod. Now that the engine bonnet is open, you can perform your necessary maintenance.

To close the bonnet, remove the prop rod and let the bonnet fall gently from a minimal height. Close the bonnet firmly but not forcefully to avoid damage.
