1;
Tilt steering allows you to adjust the steering wheel
before you begin driving. Raising the steering wheel to
the highest level gives your legs more room when you
enter and exit your vehicle.
Hold the steering wheel and pull the lever toward you
to tilt the wheel. Adjust the steering wheel to a
comfortable position and then release the lever
to lock
the wheel in place.
Turn SignaVMultifunction Lever
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.
This arrow
on the
instrument panel will flash
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 there until the lane change
is complete. The lever returns when it’s released.
Arrows that flash rapidly when signaling for a turn or
lane change may be caused by a burned-out front signal
bulb (this
does not occur with a burned-out rear bulb).
Other drivers won’t see the
turn signal. Replace
burned-out bulbs to help avoid possible accidents. Check the fuse
(see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the
Index) and for burned-out bulbs if the arrow fails to
work when signaling a turn.

You’ll need more passing distance up ahead when
you’re towing a trailer. And, because you’re
a good deal
longer, you’ll need to go much farther beyond the
passed vehicle before you can return to your lane.
Backing Up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand.
Then,
to move the trailer to the left, just move that hand
to the left.
To move the trailer to the right, move your
hand
to the right. Always back up slowly and, if
possible, have someone guide you.
Making mrns
I NOTICE:
Making very sharp turns while trailering could
cause the trailer to come in contact with the
vehicle. Your vehicle could be damaged. Avoid
making very sharp turns while trailering.
When you’re turning with a trailer, make wider turns than
normal.
Do this so your trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees
or other objects. Avoid jerky or
sudden maneuvers. Signal well in advance.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle may need a
different turn signal flasher and/or extra wiring. Check
with your Catera dealer. The green arrows on your
instrument panel will flash whenever you signal a turn
or lane change. Properly hooked up, the trailer lamps
will also flash, telling other drivers you’re about
to turn,
change lanes or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows on your
instrument panel will flash for turns even if the bulbs on
the trailer are burned out. Thus, you may think drivers
behind you
are seeing your signal when they are not. It’s
important to check occasionally to be sure the trailer
bulbs
are still working.
Driving On Grades
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before you start
down a long or steep downgrade. If you don’t shift
down, you might have to use your brakes
so much that
they would get hot and no longer work well.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and reduce your
speed
to around 45 mph (70 km/h) or less to reduce the
possibility of engine and transmission overheating.

1. With a screwdriver, unscrew the fastener on the headlamp cover and then remove
it to access the turn
signal lamps (see Step
1 under “Headlamps”).
3. Pull the bulb out to replace and then reassemble.
2. On the outboard side of each low-beam headlamp,
you
will find the turn signal bulbs. Turn the lamp
assembly to the left to remove.
Center High-Mounted Stoplamp (CHMSL)
The CHMSL is equipped with high durability
illumination.
If a bulb problem does occur, see your
dealer for assistance.
