Turn and Lane-Change
Signals

To signal a turn, move the lever all
the way up or down, past the
detent. The lever returns to its
starting position when released.

An arrow on the instrument panel
cluster flashes in the direction of the
turn or lane change.

To signal a lane change, raise or
lower the lever until the arrow starts
to flash, and then release the
lever. Do not move the lever past
the detent. The turn signal will
automatically flash three times and
turn off.

To cancel it before turning, move
the lever slightly in either direction.
Do not past the detent.

If the turn signal is moved up or down
and left engaged, the headlamps and
taillamps will remain on and the
battery could be drained.

Windshield Wipers

Clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If the
wiper blades are frozen to the
windshield, gently loosen or thaw
them. If the blades do become
damaged, install new blades or blade
inserts. See Windshield Wiper Blade
Replacement
on page 9-21.

Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor. A circuit breaker will
stop the motor until it cools down.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent
an overload.
