Hazard warning switch

The hazard warning switch comprises a single assembly in combination with the central locking button. The hazard warning flashers are activated by pressing the hazard warning switch. All turn indicators are activated simultaneously and the hazard warning switch also flashes.

If the turn signal/high beam switch is pressed in the direction for left or right turns while the hazard warning flashers are operating, the turn indicator light assumes priority.

The system reverts to operation of the hazard warning flashers after Terminal 15 off or when the turn indicator light has returned to its original position. If the hazard warning switch is depressed while the turn indicator lights are operating, then the hazard warning flashers assume priority.

With Terminal 30 on the hazard warning flashers are implemented in their energy-saving mode. In this mode, the hazard warning flashers light up for a shorter period and remain off for a longer period than usual.

When the anti-theft alarm system is signalling an active alarm the hazard warning switch is suppressed and does not flash with the alarm system.
