Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine such as changing lanes on an ex­
pressway , the steering wheel
is not
turned back sufficiently after com­
pleting the turn to automatically
cancel the turn signal.
For con­
venience
,in such maneuvers, the
driver can flash the turn signals by
moving the turn signal lever part
way (to tlie first stop) and holding
it there. The lever returns to the
neutral
or canceled position when
the driver releases his hold on the
lever. A
green light on the instrument
cluster flashes to indicate proper
operation of the front and rear turn
signal lamps.
If the indicator lamp
. remains on and does not flash,
check for a defective lamp bulb.
If
the indicator fails to light when
the lever
is moved , check the fuse
and indicator bulb.
Power Steering
If the steering system power as­
sist fails due to some malfunction, or
because the. engine has stalled,
the car can still be steered. How­

quired particularly in sharp turns.
Tilt Steering Wheel
The optional tilt steering wheel
can be tilted up above normal posi­
tion to provide additional room for
entrance and exit
as well as selected
driving positions below normal
height. This permits individual

for all driving conditions.
On long
trips the steering wheel position can
be changed to minimize tension
and fatigue.
The
till mechanism is operated
by lifting up on the small control
lever
on the left side of the steering
column just below the directional
s ignal , moving the steering wheel
to the selected position, and releas­
ing the lever.

on freew a
ys, turnpikes, or other
non-congested highways. The
sys­
tem is designed to function above
