Today, you will learn how to open the hood of the Mercedes A-Class. To open the hood, pull the release lever located at the front near the driver’s pedals.

The hood will lift slightly; only after moving the internal lever can you fully open the hood. If the vehicle does not respond, check the fuse that controls the vehicle's central unit or inspect the hood release connector.

After opening the hood and performing the necessary maintenance tasks, let the hood fall back down to close it.
