The hazard warning lights should always be used when you stop on or near a roadway in an emergency.
The hazard warning lights warn other drivers that your vehicle is a traffic hazard and that they must take extreme caution when near it.
Depress the hazard warning flasher and all the direction indicators will flash. The hazard warning indicator lights in the instrument cluster flash simultaneously.
The direction indicators do not work when the hazard warning lights are on.
Check local regulations about the use of hazard warning lights while the vehicle is being towed to verify that it is not in violation of the law.
If the brake pedal is depressed while driving on slippery roads, the emergency stop signal system could operate causing all the turn and lane change signals to flash. Refer to Emergency Stop Signal System (Search).
While the emergency stop signal system is operating, all the direction indicators automatically flash rapidly to caution the driver of a vehicle following behind your vehicle of a sudden braking situation. Refer to Emergency Stop Signal System (Search).
