HAZARD WARNING FLASHER

The Hazard Warning flasher switch is on the top of the
steering column, just behind the steering wheel.

Press the Hazard Warning flasher switch and all front
and rear directional signals will flash. Press the switch a
second time to turn the flashers off.

Do not use this emergency warning system when the
vehicle is in motion. Use it when your vehicle is disabled
and is creating a safety hazard for other motorists.

If it is necessary to leave the vehicle to go for service, the
Hazard Warning flasher will continue to operate with the
ignition key removed.

NOTE:

With extended use, the Hazard Warning flasher

may run down your battery.

tion.

On the highways — Slow down and use the highest
