How do you open the hood on a Renault Clio?

Model: Renault Clio Clio IV, MK 4, Clio 4 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Body

Opening the hood in this type of car is simple, but if it's your first time you may have some doubts. Sit in the driver's seat and look for the release lever, it is located under the dashboard on the left side near the door. Pull it firmly and you will hear a click. Now get out of the car and go in front of the hood, in the center just below the edge, there is a small safety latch. Move it to the side, usually to the left, and lift the hood. At this point, lock it with the support rod that is usually positioned on the side of the engine compartment. Now you can check the oil, coolant or anything else you need. It is not a complex operation and any driver should be able to do it, but if you don't feel confident, have it explained to you for the first time by your dealer or trusted workshop.

How to Install Roof Bars on a Fiat 500X

Learn how to equip your car with universal roof bars. Universal roof bars are used on cars with and without roof rails (fixed bars secured to the car roof). Install the roof bar kit as shown in the video with the bars calibrated according to the width of the car. Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the car's original roof rails. Once the width of the anchoring brackets is adjusted, tighten the bolts with the butterfly nut (if a lock is present) until fully secured to the roof rails. Finally, apply the safety caps on your Fiat.
