Section 4
In Case Of Driving Emergency

HAZARD WARNING FLASHER

The hazard-warning flasher provides additional safety when the vehicle must be stopped on the side of the
roadway and presents a possible hazard to other motorists. When the flasher is on, it serves as a warning to
the other drivers to approach and overtake your vehicle with caution.
Operating the hazard warning flasher system while moving on the highway is illegal.
The front directional signals and the taillights will flash intermittently when the flashers are in operation. The
hazard warning flashers will not operate when the service brake pedal is depressed. The turn signal will not
operate when the flashers are on. When it is necessary to leave the vehicle, the flasher system will continue
to operate with the ignition key removed.

IF YOU GET A FLAT TIRE

In case of sudden tire failure, avoid heavy brake application. Gradually decrease speed. Hold steering wheel
firmly and move slowly to a safe, off-road place. Park on a level spot, turn off the ignition, and turn on the
hazard warning flasher system.
