HAZARD FLASHER CONTROL

Note: The hazard warning flashers will operate when the ignition is in
any position or if the key is not in the ignition. If used when the engine
is not running, the battery will lose charge. As a result, there may be
insufficient power to restart your engine.

In some models, the hazard flasher control is located on the
instrument panel.

In other models, this feature is
located on the steering column, just
behind the steering wheel.

Use your hazard warning flashers
when your vehicle is creating a
safety hazard for other motorists.
• Press the flasher control and all

front and rear direction indicators
flash.

• Press the flasher control again to

turn them off.

FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH

WARNING: Failure to inspect and if necessary repair fuel leaks
after a collision may increase the risk of fire and serious injury.

Ford Motor Company recommends that the fuel system be inspected by
an authorized dealer after any collision.

In the event of a moderate to severe collision, this vehicle is equipped
with a fuel pump shut-off feature that stops the flow of fuel to the
engine. Not every impact will cause a shut-off.

Should your vehicle shut off after a collision, you may restart your
vehicle by doing the following:

1. Turn the ignition off.

2. Turn the ignition on.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to re-enable fuel pump.

Note: If your vehicle has the push button start system, press the
stop/start button twice to reactivate the fuel system.
