172 WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES HAZARD WARNING FLASHER The flasher switch is located in the console. Push in the flasher switch and all front and rear directional signals will flash. Press the flasher switch a second time to turn the flashers off. NOTE: With extended use, the flasher may run down your battery. IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS During severe operating conditions and stop-and-go city traffic, the coolant temperature may rise close to the red area on the gauge. The engine should not be operated with the coolant temperature in the red area. Doing so may cause serious damage which is not covered by the DaimlerChrysler Limited Warranty. In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking the appropriate action. • On the highways - Slow down and use the highest gear possible. • In city traffic - While stopped, put the transmission in Neutral, but do not increase engine idle speed. • In city traffic - While moving, shift into the highest gear possible to reduce engine RPM. Do not use this emergency warning system when the vehicle is in motion. Use it when your vehicle is disabled and is creating a safety hazard for other motorists. If it is necessary to leave the vehicle to go for service, the flasher system will continue to operate with the ignition key removed and the vehicle locked.
