HAzARD WARNING 
FLASHER

The hazard warning flasher serves as 
a warning to other drivers to exercise 
extreme caution when approaching, 
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emergency 
repairs are being made or when the 
vehicle is stopped near the edge of a 
roadway.
To turn the hazard warning flasher on 
or off, press the hazard warning flasher 
button with the Engine Start/Stop button 
in any position. The hazard warning 
flasher button is located in the center 
fascia panel. All turn signal lights will 
flash simultaneously.

regardless of whether your vehicle is 
running or not.

If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
•	Take your foot off the accelerator 
pedal and let the vehicle slow down 
while driving straight ahead. Do not 
apply the brakes immediately or 
attempt to pull off the road as this 
may cause loss of vehicle control 
resulting in an accident. When the 
vehicle has slowed to such a speed 
that it is safe to do so, brake carefully 
and pull off the road. Drive off the 
road as far as possible and park on 
firm, level ground. If you are on a 
divided highway, do not park in the 
median area between the two traffic 
lanes.

hazard warning flasher button, shift 
the gear to P (Park), apply the parking 
brake, and press the Engine Start/Stop 
button to the OFF position.

vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the 
side of the vehicle that is away from 
traffic.
