Tbrn 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.
I A I An 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.
If the turn signal
is left on, a warning chime will sound
and the Driver Information Center (DIC) will display
TURN SIGNAL ON (after driving about a mile) to
remind you to turn it off. Arrows that
flash rapidly when signaling for a turn or
lane change may be caused by a burned out signal 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.

the way toward you and
then release it to change the
headlamps from low beam
to high or from high beam
to low.
This light on the instr..__lent panel will
be on, indicating
high beam usage.

change lanes or stop.
