IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
Have a flat tire or a burnt-out bulb?
At times, a problem such as these may inter-
fere with your driving experience.
The section on emergencies can help you to
deal with critical situations independently.
In an emergency, we recommend that you call
the phone number found in the Warranty
Book.
You may also consider contacting an autho-
rized dealer.
HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS
The Hazard Warning Flashers switch is located
in the switch bank below the radio screen.
Push the switch once to turn the Hazard
Warning Flashers on. When the switch is acti-
vated, all directional turn signals will flash on
and off to warn oncoming traffic of an emer-
gency. Push the switch 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. Use it when your vehicle is disabled
and is creating a safety hazard for other motor-
ists.
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.

SOS - EMERGENCY CALL
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 automati-
cally forwards a call to emergency services in
the event of an accident with air bag interven-
tion 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.
CAUTION!
Prolonged use of the Hazard Warning
Flashers may discharge the vehicle’s
battery.
