1998 Cadillac Catera locked doors

my battery is dead and I can not open doors to release hood latch in order to jump start. Is their a manual hood release on outside of this car?

Thanks,

Buzzsaw,

Yes it does on driver side but it is electrical not mechanical, that is a problem with dead battery.
