Turn Signal/Multifunction 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.
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 ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index) and for burned
-out bulbs if the
arrow fails to work when signaling a turn.
Headlamp High/Low Beam
Push forward for high beam to change the headlamps
from low beam to high. Pull the lever back and then
release it to change from high beam to low.
This light located on the
instrument panel will be on,
indicating high
-beam usage.
Flash-To-Pass
This lets you use the high beam headlamps to signal the
driver in front of you that you want to pass.
Pull and hold the turn signal lever toward you to use.
When you do:
If the headlamps are either off or in the DRL mode,
the high beam headlamps will turn on. They'll stay
on as long as you hold the lever there. Release the
lever to turn them off.
If the headlamps are on highbeam, they will switch
to low beam. To return to high beam, push the lever
away from you.

4-41 Making Turns
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 dealer. The 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 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.
For some grade conditions, it may be better to drive in
THIRD (3) to lessen transaxle shifting. You may wish to
drive in THIRD (3) instead of DRIVE (D) while towing
a trailer.
On a long uphill grade, reduce your speed to around
45 mph (70 km/h) or less to reduce the possibility of
engine and transaxle overheating.
