Turn Signal and
Hazard Warning
Indicators
The left or right turn signal light blinks when you signal a lane changeor turn. If the light does not blink or
blinks rapidly, it usually means one of the turn signal bulbs is burned out (see page 191). Replace the bulb as
soon as possible, since other drivers
cannot see that you are signalling.
When you turn on the Hazard
Warning switch, both turn signal lights blink. All turn signals on the outside of the vehicle should flash. Trunk-open Indicator
This light comes on if the trunk lid is not closed tightly. Low Fuel Indicator
This light comes on as a reminder that you must refuel soon. Cruise Control Indicator
Only on cars equipped with Cruise
Control System
This lights when you set the cruise control. See page 64 for information
on operating the cruise control.
