The Hazard Warning Flashers button is located in
the switch bank below the radio screen.
Push the button once to turn the Hazard Warning
Flashers on. When the button is activated, all
directional turn signals will flash on and off to
warn oncoming traffic of an emergency. Push the
button a second time to turn the Hazard Warning
Flashers off.
This is an emergency warning system and it
should not be used when the vehicle is in motion.

signaling a safety hazard warning for other
motorists.
When you must leave the vehicle to seek
assistance, the Hazard Warning Flashers will
continue to operate even though the ignition is
cycled to OFF.Hazard Warning Flashers Button

SOS EMERGENCY CALL —
IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle has an on-board assistance feature
that is designed to provide support in case of an
accident and/or emergency. This feature is
automatically activated by air bag intervention, or
can be activated manually by pushing the button
located on the base of the rear view mirror.

NOTE:
SOS Emergency Call will only work with an
enabled network operator.
SOS Emergency Call Button
The SOS Emergency Call system automatically
forwards a call to emergency services in the event
of an accident with air bag intervention providing
that the ignition device is in RUN position and the
air bags are working. When the connection
between the vehicle and a public safety operator
is made, your vehicle will automatically transmit
location and vehicle information to the
emergency service operator.
Only a public safety operator can remotely end
the SOS Emergency Call and, if necessary, call the
vehicle back through the Emergency Call system.
Once the call has ended, you can still call the
emergency service operator to indicate additional
information by pushing the button again.
CAUTION!
Prolonged use of the Hazard Warning Flashers
may discharge the vehicle’s battery.
