HAZARD WARNING
LIGHTS
The Hazard Warning flasher switch is
located in the switch bank below the
radio screen.Push the switch once
to turn the hazard
warning flasher on.
When the switch is
activated, all
directional turn signals
will flash on and off to warn oncoming
traffic of an emergency. Push the switch
a second time to turn the hazard

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.

With extended use the hazard warning
flashers may discharge your battery.

Prolonged use of the hazard warning
flashers may discharge the vehicle’s
battery.
BULB
REPLACEMENT
General InstructionsBefore replacing a bulb, check the
contacts for oxidation.
Replace blown bulbs with others of
the same type and power.
After replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment.
When a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before changing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to “Fuses” in this
chapter.
Note:
In some particular climate conditions,
such as low temperature, humidity, or
after washing the car, a thin
condensation layer may form on the
internal surfaces of the front and rear
headlights. This condensation will
disappear after switching on the
headlights.08016S0001EMHazard Warning Switch

FUSES
General Information
The fuses protect electrical systems
against excessive current.
When a device does not work, you
must check the electrical circuit inside
of the fuse for a break/melt.
Also, please be aware that using power
outlets for extended periods of time
with the engine off may result in vehicle
battery discharge.Fuse Extracting Pliers

to the fuse box.Grab the pliers from the upper tabs,
press them, and extract the pliers
pulling upwards.
The pliers have two different ends, both
of which are specifically designed to
remove the different types of fuses
present in the vehicle:
After use, return the pliers to their
proper position by following the below
procedures:
Grasp the pliers from the upper tabs
and insert them into their housing.
Push downward on the pliers into
their housing until they click into place.

Warning!
When replacing a blown fuse, always
use an appropriate 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.
Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or
disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.

transmission system) or steering system
blows, contact an authorized dealer.
