Cigarette Lighter
Push knob on console in. When ready for use, the lighter will snap back. With the lighter
removed, the socket may be used for small
appliances, such as shaver, hand vacuum
cleaner or air compressor to inflate the
collapsible spare tire. Maximum rating of such
equipment should not exceed 120 W/12 Volt.
Do not damage the socket by trying to
insert plugs of the wrong design.



Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger works only with the
ignition key in positions 1 and 2.
The rear window defogger, together with the
flow through ventilation, will help to keep the
inside of the rear window clear of
condensation and frost in the winter.
Depress the switch to turn on the rear window
defogger.
The control light in the switch will light up to
remind you that the defogger is switched on.
After the rear window has been cleared, switch off the rear window defogger to avoid
unnecessary drain on the battery.
Emergency Flasher
If your car is disabled or parked under
emergency conditions, depress the HAZARD
switch to make all four turn signals flash
simultaneously. The light in the switch flashes
at the same frequency.
The emergency flasher works
independently of the ignition switch
position.
WARNING

Whenever stalled or stopped for emergency repair, move the car well off
the road. Turn on the emergency flasher
and mark the car with road flares or other
warning devices. Do not remain in the car.


Do not park or operate the car where the hot exhaust system may come in contact
with dry grass, brush, fuel spill or other
flammable material.
Before working on any part in the engine compartment, turn the engine off and let it cool down sufficiently. Hot components
can burn skin on contact.
Remember the coolant fan is thermostatically controlled and may come on at anytime, regardless of ignition
switch position.
