66 Instruments and controls
Front fog lights
The front fog lights can be activated in both
dimmed headlight and parking light posi-
tions. Fog lights should only be used in poor
visibility conditions.
Make sure you are familiar with the appli-
cable provincial/state law regarding the
use of fog lights.
Reversing lights
The reversing lights come on automatically
when reverse gear is engaged or selected
with the ignition switched on.
Hazard warning lights
When this button is pressed, all the turn
signal indicators and a symbol in the button
flash simultaneously. If the ignition is on,
both indicator lights on the instrument panel
will also flash.
If the hazard warning lights are left on for
some time, the flasher frequency will be
reduced to save the battery.
Hazard warning lights should only be used
if the car constitutes a hazard to other road
users.
WARNING
Switch on the hazard flashers if the car
has to be left at the roadside on account
of an accident, engine trouble or a punc-
ture. If you carry a warning triangle or
flares, they should be set up along side of
the road 300 ft. (100 m) behind your vehi-
cle. If the car is not clearly visible (e.g.
over the brow of a hill or bridge), place the
triangle/flare even further back.
