Turn Signal and Lane Change
Indicator
(CONI)
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, if
the arrows don’t flash but just stay on, a
signal bulb may be burned out and other
drivers won’t see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help
avoid an accident.
If the green arrows
don’t go
on at all when you signal a
turn, check the fuse (see
the Index under
Fuses & Circuit Breakers) and for
burned-out bulbs.

rn Cruise Control (OPTION)
With cruise control, you can maintain a
speed of about
25 mph (40 h/h) or
more without keeping your foot on the
accelerator. This can really help on long
trips. Cruise control does not work at
speeds below about
25 mph (40 km/h).
When you apply your brakes, or the
clutch pedal, the cruise control shuts
off.
Cruise control can be
l dangerous where you can’t
drive safely at a steady speed.
So, don’t use your cruise control
on winding roads or-in heavy
traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous
on slippery roads. On such
roads, hst changes in
tire
traction can cause needless wheel
spinning, and you could
lose
control. Don’t use cruise control
on slippery roads.
