lights lor parking lights. Regulate th e intensity 01 the instrument panel lights by rotating the
knob; turn fully counterclockwise past the
"detent" position
to turn on the interior lights.
• Move
the headlight motor switch toward you to
rotate the head lamp assemblies into the open
position. The headlamps may be lelt in the open
position even WiLh the lights turned off. To close
