fCONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
TURN SIGNAL / HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH LEVER
Turn signals
The turn signal indicator light flashes when you operate the lever (ignition on).
Lever up - right turn signal
Lever down - left turn signal
The turn signals are cancelled automatic­ ally when you have completed a turn (for
example when turning a corner), and the
steering wheel returns to the straight-
ahead position.
If a turn signal fails, the indicator light
flashes about twice as fast. A light bulb may have to be replaced. Headlight dimmer
With headlights on (light switch in second
stop),
you can switch to either high or low beam by pulling the lever toward the steer­ing wheel past the point of resistance.
When high beam is on, the indicator light will light up.
Headlight flasher
With headlights on or off, you can signal with your headlights (in lieu of horn), by repeatedly pulling the lever just up to the
point of resistance.
Lane changer
Move the lever up or down just to the point
of resistance - the indicator light must also flash at the same time. The lever will
return to the OFF position when released.
The lever will return to the OFF position when released.
