How do you open the hood of the Renault Clio 1?

Model: Renault Clio Clio 2, MK 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Body

The operation that we are going to describe here below is certainly among the most well-known and widespread, also because it is inevitable to know it, since all drivers occasionally do it to check the level of radiator fluid, engine oil, etc. The images of the video posted here offer a wide overview, however in practice what needs to be done is: identify the lever under the dashboard, on the driver's side, adjacent to the door, pull it, go to the front of the aforementioned hood, lift it slightly, just enough to insert your hand, push the latch and release it. Done, now we can lift, indeed, the hood.
