Hazard Warning Flashers
Your hazard warning flashers let you warn others. They
also let police know you have a problem. Your front and
rear turn signal lamps will flash on and
off.
Press the switch (located near the ignition switch) to
make your front and rear turn signal lamps flash
on
and
off. Your hazard warning flashers work no matter what
position your key is in, and even if the key isn't in.
To turn off the flashers, press the switch again. When
the hazard warning flashers are on, your turn signals
won't work.
