Lighting

If after signaling a turn or a lane
change the arrows flash rapidly or
do not come on, a signal bulb may
be burned out.

Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb
is not burned out, check the fuse.
See Instrument Panel Fuse Block
on page 10‑46
and Engine
Compartment Fuse Block on
page 10‑41
.

Turn Signal On Chime

If the turn signal is left on for more
than 1.2 km (3/4 of a mile), a chime
sounds at each flash of the turn
signal and the message TURN
SIGNAL ON also appears in the
DIC. See Lamp Messages on
page 5‑39
. To turn the chime and
message off, move the turn signal
lever to the off position.

Fog Lamps

If your vehicle has fog lamps you
can use them for better vision in
foggy or misty conditions. Your

parking lamps and/or low-beam
headlamps must be on for your fog
lamps to work.

The fog lamp button is located on
the left side of your instrument
panel.

#

(Fog Lamps): Press the button

to turn the fog lamps on. An
indicator light will glow near the
button when the fog lamps are on.
Press the button again to turn
them off.

Remember, fog lamps alone will not
give off as much light as your
headlamps. Never use your fog
lamps in the dark without turning on
the headlamps.

The fog lamps will go off whenever
your high-beam headlamps come
on. When the high beams go off, the
fog lamps will come on again.

The fog lamps will be cancelled
after the ignition is turned off. If you
still want to use the fog lamps after
you restart the vehicle, you will need
to press the fog lamp button again.

Some localities have laws that
require the headlamps to be on
along with the fog lamps.

Exterior Cargo Lamps

The cargo lamp can be used if more
light is needed in the cargo area of
the vehicle or in the top-box storage
units. Some vehicles will only have
a cargo lamp in the driver side
top box.

The cargo lamps come on by
turning on the interior dome lamps.
