Turn and Lane-Change Signals

The turn signal has an upward (for right) and a
downward (for left) position. These positions allow
you to signal a turn or a lane change.

To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or
down. When the turn is finished, the lever will return
automatically.

To signal a lane change, raise or lower the lever until
the arrow starts to flash. Hold it there until you complete
your lane change. The lever will return by itself when
you release it.

An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster will flash in
the direction of the
turn or lane change.

If you signal a turn or a lane change and notice the
arrow flashing rapidly, a signal bulb may be burned out
and other drivers won’t see your turn signal.

If a bulb is burned out, have it replaced to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows don’t go on at all when you
signal a turn, check for burned-out bulbs and then check
the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-96.

Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer

The headlamps must be on for this feature to work.
For high beams, push the turn signal lever away
from you.

When the high beams are
on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
also will be on.

It will go off when you switch to the low beams.
To switch back to low beams, pull the lever toward you.

Flash-to-Pass

With the lever in the low-beam position, pull the lever
toward you to momentarily switch to high beams
(to signal that you are going to pass). If you have the
headlamps on when you release the lever, they will
return to the low beams.
