Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light
[LG03300(ALL)04/94]
The oil pressure light is represented by an oil can symbol. It

Hazard Flasher Switch
*
[IP11150(ALL)04/95]
The hazard flasher is used to alert other drivers to hazardous
situations.
*
[IP11200(ALL)09/93]
The hazard flasher switch operates the same lamps as the turn
signal lever. When the hazard flasher is activated, all of these
lamps will flash on and off. The turn signal indicators cannot be
used when the hazard lamps are flashing. Operation of the
hazard flashers does not affect operation of the brakelamps.

The flashers work even with the key out of the ignition. The
flashers will work for up to two hours when the battery is fully
charged and in good condition. They will not drain the battery
excessively. If the flashers run for longer than two hours or if
your battery is not fully charged, your battery may be drained
to the point where the vehicle will not start.
[IP11400(ALL)01/93]
The hazard flasher switch is located on the instrument panel to
the right of the instrument cluster.
