Hazard warning light switch

Hazard warning lights

The button for the hazard warning lights is
located on the climate control panel.
When the button is pressed, all the direction
indicators and the symbol in the button flash
simultaneously.
If an indicator bulb breaks, the frequency
with which the indicators flash will be
doubled.
Hazard warning lights should only be used
if, because of an accident or breakdown, the
car constitutes a hazard to other road users.
WARNING
Switch on the hazard flashers if the car
has to be left at the roadside on account
of a crash, engine trouble or a flat tire.
If you carry a warning triangle or flares,
they should be set up along the side of the
road 50–110 yds. (50–100 metres)
behind your vehicle. If the car is not
clearly visible (e.g. over the brow of a hill
or bridge), place the triangle/flare even
further back.
Back-Up
The back-up lights come on automatically
when reverse gear is engaged or selected
with the ignition switched on.
Button for accessory, Sport Sedan
This button can be used for accessories,
such as extra lights.
Priority of audible information
Sound from various functions in the car,
such as the direction indicators, parking
assistance and seatbelt reminders, come
from the same sound source: the car's
sound system. If two or more of these func-
tions are active simultaneously, the most
important function at that time will be priori-
tized.
If, for example, the direction indicators are
active when you engage reverse, the park-
ing assistance (if fitted) will be heard instead
of the direction indicators. When reverse is
disengaged, the direction indicators will be
heard, if they are still active.
