Congratulations on your new car, that’s so exciting!
It’s a good idea to get familiar with the inner workings of your new
Mini Cooper
hood. Follow these steps to pop the hood of your new car:
  • Find the hood release lever located on the driver’s side dash to the left of the pedals
  • Pull up on the lever once to unlock the hood, then pull it again to open it
  • Insert your hand under the hood to find the safety latch
  • Push on the safety latch and the hood should open
If you follow these simple directions, your Mini Cooper hood should pop right open for you!
Mini Coopers may be small, but they need a strong
car insurance
policy. Thanks to
