204 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS

This is an emergency warning system and it should not be

used when the vehicle is in motion. Use it when your

vehicle is disabled and it is creating a safety hazard for

other motorists.

The Hazard Warning flasher switch is located on the

instrument panel, below the radio.

Push the switch to turn on the Hazard Warning

flasher. When the switch is activated, all direc-

tional turn signals will flash on and off to warn

oncoming traffic of an emergency. Push the

switch a second time to turn off the Hazard Warning

flashers.

When you must leave the vehicle to seek assistance, the

Hazard Warning flashers will continue to operate even

though the ignition is placed in the OFF position.

NOTE: With extended use, the Hazard Warning flashers

may wear down your battery.

General Information

The fuses protect electrical systems against excessive cur-

rent.

priate replacement fuse with the same amp rating as

the original fuse. Never replace a fuse with another

fuse of higher amp rating. Never replace a blown

fuse with metal wires or any other material. Do not

place a fuse inside a circuit breaker cavity or vice

versa. Failure to use proper fuses may result in

serious personal injury, fire and/or property damage.

When a device does not work, you must check the fuse

element inside the blade fuse for a break/melt.
