Closing the hood

Take extra care to ensure that you close the hood completely after opening it.

Make sure nothing gets in the way of the hood as it closes.

 Warning

Pinching and crushing hazard

Keep all hands away from the hood's closing path. Be extra cautious when children or pets are nearby.

From the fully-opened position, carefully lower the hood until it reaches the locking mechanism.
Press down on the hood with both hands to fully close it.

 Note

You should hear the hood lock on both sides.
Make sure there are no significant gaps or any indication that the hood is not completely closed.

 Note

Open hood warning

The vehicle notifies you if it detects that the hood is not completely closed. Open the hood and check for obstructions before closing it again. Contact Volvo Support if the notification remains.

 Warning

Do not drive with the hood open

Stop the vehicle immediately if there is any indication that the hood is not completely closed.
