return automatically.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster will flash in
the direction of the turn

until the arrow starts to flash. Hold it there until you
complete your lane change. The lever will return by
itself when you release it.

As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows flash
very fast, a bulb may be burned out and other drivers
won't see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid
an accident.
If the arrows don't go on at all when you signal a turn,
check the fuse (see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in
the Index) and check for burned
-out bulbs.
Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than 0.8 miles
(1.3 km), a chime will sound at each flash of the turn
signal and the DIC will display the TURN SIGNAL
ON? reminder message. To turn off the chime and
message, move the turn signal lever to the off position.
To turn off the DIC message while the turn signal is
still active, press any button on the DIC. See
ªDriver Information Center (DIC)º in the
Index for more information.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high, push
the lever away from you until you hear a click. Then
release it.
When the high beams
are on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
will also be on.
If the fog lamps are on when you turn on the
high
-beam headlamps, the fog lamps will turn off.
The fog lamps will turn back on when you turn
off the high
-beam headlamps.

to 12 discs continuously. Normal size discs may be
played using the trays supplied in the magazine.
The small discs (8 cm) can be played only with specially
designed trays.
NOTICE:
Place large objects in the truck appropriately so
that they will not come into contact with the CD
changer. Damage could result that wouldn't be
covered by your warranty.

disc. Slide the button on the back of the magazine and
pull gently on one of the trays. Load the trays from
bottom to top, placing a disc on the tray label side down.

and an error will occur. Gently push the tray back into
the magazine slot until it locks into place. Repeat this

Understanding Radio Reception
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for
FM, especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise if you ever get it.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals
will reach only about 10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing
the sound to come and go.
Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage may cause interference with
your vehicle's radio. This interference may occur when
making or receiving phone calls, charging the phone's
battery or simply having the phone on. This interference
is described as an increased level of static while
listening to the radio. If you notice static while listening
to the radio, unplug the cellular phone and turn it off.
