Lighting 6-7
Once the vehicle leaves the garage,
it takes approximately one minute
for the automatic headlamp system
to change to DRL if it is light
outside. During that delay, the
instrument panel cluster may not be
as bright as usual. Make sure the
instrument panel brightness control
is in the full bright position. See
Instrument Panel Illumination
Control on page 68.
Hazard Warning Flashers
|
(Hazard Warning Flashers):
Press this button located on top of
the steering column, to make the
front and rear turn signal lamps
flash on and off. This warns others
that you are having trouble. Press
again to turn the flashers off.
When the hazard warning flashers
are on, the vehicle's turn signals will
not work.
Turn and Lane-Change
Signals
An arrow on the instrument panel
cluster flashes in the direction of the
turn or lane change.
Move the lever all the way up or
down to signal a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the
arrow starts to flash to signal a
lane change. The turn signals
automatically flash three times.
It will flash six times if the tow-haul
mode is active. Holding the
turn signal lever for more than
one second causes the turn signals
to flash until the lever is released.
The lever returns to its starting
position when it is released.
If after signaling a turn or a lane
change the arrows flash rapidly or
do not come on, a signal bulb may
be burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb
is not burned out, check the fuse.
See Instrument Panel Fuse Block
on page 1046 and Engine
Compartment Fuse Block on
page 1041.
Turn Signal On Chime
If the turn signal is left on for more
than 1.2 km (3/4 of a mile), a chime
sounds at each flash of the turn
signal and the message TURN
SIGNAL ON also appears in the
DIC. See Lamp Messages on
page 531. To turn the chime and
message off, move the turn signal
lever to the off position.
