This lever operates the following:

•Exterior Lamps. See Exterior Lamps on page 3-13.

•Turn and Lane-Change Signals. See Turn and Lane-Change Signals on page 3-7.

•Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer. See Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on page 3-8.

•Flash-to-Pass. See Flash-to-Passon page 3-8.

•Fog Lamps. See Fog Lamps on page 3-15.

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 5-91.
