indicate a change in direction or lane change by operating the turn signal. The hazard warning lights
will be interrupted temporarily.
Switch on the hazard warning lights, e.g. in the following situations:
When traffic ahead suddenly starts moving more slowly or you reach the tail end of a traffic jam to
warn vehicles behind you.
There is an emergency situation.
The vehicle has broken down.
When tow-starting or towing.
Always follow local regulations on the use of the hazard warning lights.
If the hazard warning lights are not working, you must use an alternative method of drawing
attention to the broken-down vehicle. This method must comply with traffic legislation.
WARNING
Any broken-down vehicle poses a high accident risk for the vehicle occupants and for other road
users.
Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and when safe to do so.
Park the vehicle at a safe distance from moving traffic.
Switch on the hazard warning lights.
Never leave other persons alone in the vehicle, particularly children or people requiring assistance.
This applies in particular when the doors are locked. People locked in the vehicle may be subjected
to very high or very low temperatures.
WARNING
Ignoring any of the items on this important safety checklist can lead to accidents and severe injuries.
Always follow the instructions in the checklist and observe the general safety procedures.
WARNING
The components of the exhaust system become very hot. This can cause fires and serious injuries.
Park the vehicle so that no part of the exhaust system can come into contact with any inflammable
material underneath the vehicle, e.g. dry grass, fuel.
Page 86 of 502

When pushing the vehicle by hand, do not press on the tail light clusters, the rear spoiler or large
panels. This could damage the vehicle and the rear spoiler could become detached.
The 12-volt vehicle battery will discharge if the hazard warning lights are left on over a long period of
time even when the ignition is switched off.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the brake lights flash rapidly if you brake sharply or initiate full
braking at a speed of more than 80 km/h (50 mph). This is a particularly effective way of attracting
the attention of vehicles behind you. If you then continue to brake, the hazard warning lights will be
switched on automatically at speeds under approximately 10 km/h (6 mph). Once you start to
accelerate, the hazard warning lights will switch off again automatically.
