HAZARD WARNING
FLASHERS
The Hazard Warning flasher switch is
located in the lower center area of the
instrument panel.
Press the switch to turn on the
Hazard
Warning flasher.
When the switch is activated, all di-
rectional turn signals will flash on and
off to warn oncoming traffic of an
emergency. Press the switch a second
time to turn off the Hazard Warning
flashers.
This is an emergency warning system
and it should not be used when the
vehicle is in motion. Use it when your
vehicle is disabled and it is creating a
safety hazard 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 placed in the
OFF position.
NOTE: With extended use the
Hazard Warning flashers may
wear down your battery.
IF YOUR ENGINE
OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you
can reduce the potential for overheat-
ing by taking the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped,
place the transmission in NEU-
TRAL, but do not increase engine
idle speed.
NOTE: There are steps that you
can take to slow down an impend-
ing overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is
on, turn it off. The A/C system
adds heat to the engine cooling
system and turning the A/C off
can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the tempera-
ture control to maximum heat,
the mode control to floor and the
blower control to high. This al-
lows the heater core to act as a
supplement to the radiator and
aids in removing heat from the
engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system
could damage your vehicle. If tem-
perature gauge reads “H”, pull over
and stop the vehicle. Idle the ve-
hicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops
back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on the “H”, turn
the engine off immediately, and call
for service.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned
by hot engine coolant (antifreeze)
or steam from your radiator. If you
see or hear steam coming from un-
der the hood, do not open the hood
until the radiator has had time to
cool. Never try to open a cooling
system pressure cap when the ra-
diator or coolant bottle is hot.
