on for a long time while the engine is station-
ary  (not  running).  A  run-down  battery  could
result.
l When  it  rains  or  when  the  vehicle  has  been
washed,  the  inside  of  the  lens  sometimes  be-
comes  foggy.  This  is  the  same  phenomenon
as  when  window  glass  mists  up  on  a  humid
day,  and  does  not  indicate  a  functional  prob-
lem.  When  the  lamp  is  switched  on,  the  heat
will remove the fog. However, if water gath-
ers  inside  the  lamp,  we  recommend  you  to
have it checked.Type 1

just  the  headlamp  illumination  distance  (when  the
lower  beam  is  illuminated)  so  that  the  headlamps’
glare does not distract other drivers.

the appropriate position according to the number of
people and the load in the vehicle.CAUTIONl Always perform adjustments before driv-
ing.
Do not attempt to adjust while driving, as
it could cause an accident.

turn  after  cornering.  This  occurs  when  the
steering wheel is turned only slightly.
In such cases, return the lever by hand.
2- Lane-change signals When  changing  lanes,  use  position  (2).  It
will  return  to  the  neutral  position  when  re-
