and enter the vehicle.
The lever that allows you to tilt the steering wheel is
located on the left side of the steering column.
To tilt the wheel, hold the
wheel and pull the lever
toward you. Then move the
wheel to a comfortable
position and release
the lever to lock the wheel
in place.

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
To signal a turn, move the lever on the left side of the
steering wheel all the way up or down. The lever returns
automatically when the turn is complete.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster will ash in
the direction of the
turn or lane change.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Head-Up
Display (HUD), an arrow will also appear in the display
area to indicate the direction of the turn or lane
change. SeeHead-Up Display (HUD) on page 3-20for
more information.
You may also have an arrow in the outside mirror that
ashes when the turn signal is used. SeeOutside Power
Mirrors on page 2-35for more information.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to ash to
signal a lane change. Hold it there until the lane
change is complete.
If the arrows ash very fast as you signal a turn or a
lane change, a signal bulb may be burned out and other
drivers will not see your turn signal.If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows do not go on at all when you
signal a turn, check the fuse. SeeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 5-92.
Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than 0.8 miles
(1.3 km), a chime will sound at each ash of the turn
signal. To turn off the chime, move the turn signal lever
to the off position.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high beam
or high beam to low beam, pull the turn signal lever
toward you and release it.
While the high beams are
on, this light located on the
instrument panel cluster
will also be on.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Head-Up
Display (HUD), this symbol will also appear in the
display area to indicate the high beams are on. See
Head-Up Display (HUD) on page 3-20for more
information.

Compact Disc Messages
CHECK CD:If this message appears on the radio
display, it could be due to one of the following reasons:
You’re driving on a very rough road. When the
road becomes smoother, the disc should play.
The disc is dirty, scratched, wet or upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour and
try again.
There may have been a problem while burning
the CD.
The label may be caught in the CD player.
If the CD is not playing correctly, for any other reason,
try a known good CD.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can’t be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays an
error number, write it down and provide it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.
Trunk-Mounted CD Changer
With the optional compact disc changer, you can play
up to 12 discs continuously. Normal size discs may
be played using the trays supplied in the magazine.
Notice:Placing heavy objects, which may shift or
slide while driving, in the trunk could damage
the CD changer. If your vehicle has the optional CD
changer, do not put heavy objects in the trunk.

You must rst load the magazine with discs before you
can play a compact disc. Each of the 12 trays holds
one disc. Slide the button on the top of the magazine
and gently pull out one of the trays. Load the trays from
top to bottom, placing a disc on the tray label side
up. If you load a disc with the label side down, the disc
will not play and an error will occur. Gently push the
tray back into the magazine slot until it locks into place.
Repeat this procedure for loading up to 12 discs in
the magazine.Once you have loaded the discs in the magazine, slide
open the door of the compact disc (CD) changer.

the arrow marked on top of the magazine.

checking for discs in the magazine. This will continue
for up to one and a half minutes depending on the
number of discs loaded.
To eject the magazine from the player, slide the CD
changer door all the way open (to the left). The
magazine will automatically eject. Remember to keep
the door closed whenever possible to keep dirt and dust
from getting inside the changer.Whenever a CD magazine with discs is loaded in the
changer and the door is closed, the CD changer
stack symbol will appear on the radio display. If the CD
changer is checking the magazine for CDs, the CD
changer stack symbol will ash on the display until the
changer is ready to play. When a CD begins playing,
the disc and track number will be displayed. The
disc numbers are listed on the front of the magazine.
