Hood Service Position

This is a great hood mechanism. First the nice secondary release that pops for easy access out once the primary release is actuated. Then, the button to change the hood from open, to service position!

Pardon my ignorance, none of my prior vehicles did that. It is way cool!

Anyone know why the Operator's Manual neglects to mention that feature?
