How do you open the hood of the Mercedes CLA?

Model: Mercedes CLA C117, X117 - Years 2013-2019
Part: Body

In order to open the hood of the Mercedes CLA, you must locate the lever located under the steering column: it can be found at the bottom left. This red lever must be pulled downwards so that the hood lock actuator is released: once the actuator is unlocked, you will need to insert your hand in the central lower part of the hood. This way, you can remove the pin that locks the hood and then lift it; to close it, simply lower it with enough force.
