Turn and Lane-Change Signals
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or down.
The lever returns automatically when the turn is
complete.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster flashes in the
direction of the turn or
lane change.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash to
signal a lane change. Hold it briefly until the lane
change is complete. The arrow will automatically flash
three times The lever returns to its original position when
it is released.
Rapid flashing of arrows when signaling for a turn or
lane change can be caused by a burned-out signal bulb.
Other drivers will not see the signal.
Replace burned-out bulbs to help avoid possible
accidents. Check the fuse for burned-out bulbs if the
arrow fails to work when signaling a turn. See Fuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 5-122 for more information.
Turn Signal On Chime
If the turn signal is left on for about 1 mile (1.6 km), a
warning chime will sound and the TURN SIGNAL
ON message will appear on the Driver Information
Center (DIC) display. See “Turn Signal On” under DIC
Warnings and Messages on page 3-54 for more
information.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer

to change the headlamps from low to high beam. Pull
the lever back and then release it to change from high to

If the vehicle is turned off while the high beams are on,
they will come on the next time the vehicle is started.
