To
signal a lane change, just 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.
As
you signal a turn or a lane change,
if
the arrow
flashes faster than normal, a signal bulb may be burned
out
and other drivers won’t see your turn signal.
If
a
bulb is burned out, replace
it
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’’
in
the
Index).
A
chime will sound
if
you leave your turn signal on for
more than
3/4
mile
(1.2
km).
Headlamp High/Low Beam
To
change your headlamps
from low beams to high
beams, or high
to
low, pull
the multifunction lever all
the way toward you. Then
release
it.
When
the
high
beams are on, a light on
the
instrument panel
also
will
be on.
Flash-to-Pass
Feature
This feature lets you use your high-beam headlamps
to
signal the driver
in
front
of
you
that you want
to
pass. It
works even if your headlamps are
off.
To
use
it,
pull
the
turn
signal lever toward you a little,
but not
so
far that you hear a click.
If
your headlamps are off
or
on low beam, your
high-beam headlamps will turn
on.
They’ll stay on as
long as you hold the lever toward you and the
high-beam indicator
on
the
dash will come on. Release
the lever to turn the high-beam headlamps off.
