The direction indicators are operated using the
indicator stalk. Move the stalk up or down, to
indicate a right or left turn. A green warning
indicator will flash in the instrument panel.
The indicators will operate three times (e.g. to
indicate a lane change) if the stalk is briefly
pushed up or down. Lane change flash can be
disabled or enabled by a Dealer/Authorised
Repairer.
Note: Should a direction indicator bulb fail, the
corresponding green warning indicator will
flash at twice the normal rate and the audible

HEADLAMPS - DRIVING ABROAD
Note: The headlamps must be removed in
order to change the beam pattern.
See REMOVING A HEADLAMP (page 81).

left, or the right.
When new, the lever will be set to the correct
position for the country in which the vehicle is
sold. To change the pattern for driving on the
other side of the road, move the lever to the
opposite position.
Note: When changing the beam pattern using
