Ford Escape: Hazard Flasher Control
The hazard flasher is located on the steering column, just behind the steering wheel. The hazard flashers will operate when the ignition is in any position or if the key is not in the ignition.
• Press the flasher control and all
front and rear direction signals
will flash.
• Press the flasher control again to
turn them off.
Use it when your vehicle is disabled and is creating a safety hazard for other motorists.
Note: With extended use, the flasher may run down your battery.
