In case of emergency
Hazard warning lights
Fig. 63 Dashboard: switch for hazard
warning lights.
The hazard warning lights are used to draw the
attention of other road users to your vehicle in
emergencies.
If your vehicle is stationary:
1. Park the vehicle at a safe distance from
road traffic.
2. Press the button to switch on the hazard
warning lights

.
3. Apply the electronic parking brake.
4. Connect the drive system.
5. Use the warning triangle to indicate the po-
sition of your vehicle so that it does not
pose a hazard to other road users.
6. Always carry the key with you when leaving
the vehicle.
All turn signals flash simultaneously when the
hazard warning lights are switched on. The two
turn signal turn signal lamps and the turn
signal lamp in the switch will flash at the
same time. The simultaneous hazard warning
lights also work when the ignition is switched
off.
While the hazard warning lights are on, you can
signal a direction or lane change, e.g. during
towing, by operating the turn signal lever. The
hazard warning lights remain switched off dur-
ing this time.
Emergency braking warning
If the vehicle brakes suddenly and continu-
ously at a speed of more than 80 km/h (50
mph), the brake light flashes several times per
second to warn the vehicles driving behind.
If you continue braking, the hazard warning
lights will come on automatically when the
vehicle comes to a standstill. They switch off
automatically when the vehicle starts to move
again.
WARNING
•
The risk of an accident increases if your
vehicle breaks down. Always use the hazard
warning lights and a warning triangle to draw
the attention of other road users to your sta-
tionary vehicle.
• Never leave anybody inside the vehicle,
particularly children or anybody who may
need help. This is especially important when
the doors are locked. Individuals locked in
the vehicle can be exposed to very high or
very low temperatures.
Note
•
The 12-volt vehicle battery will run down
if the hazard warning lights are left on for a
long time (even if the ignition is switched off).
• The use of the hazard warning lights de-
scribed here is subject to the relevant statu-
tory requirements.
