Operation of Lights
Although your vehicle’s lighting system (headlights, parking lights, fog lamps,
side marker lights and taillights) meets
all applicable federal lighting
requirements, certain states and
provinces may apply their
own lighting
regulations that may require special
attention before
you operate these lights.
For example, some jurisdictions may
require that you operate your fog lamps
only when your lower beam headlights
are also on, or that headlights be
turned
on whenever you must use your
windshield wipers. In addition, most
jurisdictions prohibit driving solely
with parking lights, especially at dawn
or dusk. It is recommended that you
check with your own state or provincial
highway authority for applicable
lighting regulations.

rurn Signal and Lane Change
’ndicator
The turn signal has two upward (for
light) and
two downward (for Left)
)ositions. These positions allow you to
ignal a turn or a lane change.
To signal a turn, move the lever all the
yay up or down. When the turn is
inished, the lever will return
lutomatically.
A green arrow on the instrument panel
will flash in the direction of the turn or
lane change.
To signal a lane change, just raise or
lower the lever until the green 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, ij
the arrows don’t flash but just stay on,
signal bulb may be burned out and
other drivers won’t see your turn signal
If your vehicle has the electronic
instrument cluster, the turn signal
arrows will flash at a faster rate
if a
signal bulb is burned out.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to hell
avoid an accident.

Fog Lights
Use your fog lights for better vision in
foggy or misty conditions. Your parking
lights or low beam headlights must be
on for them to come on.
The fog light switch is on the
instrument panel under the headlight
switch. Press the right side of the switch
to turn the fog lights on, and the left
side of the switch to turn them off. An
indicator light will glow in the right side
of the switch when they are on.
Remember, fog lights alone will not give
off as much light as your headlights.
Never use your fog lights in the dark
without turning on your headlights. The
fog lights will go off whenever your
high beam headlights come on. When
the high beams go
off, the fog lights will
come on again.
