The lever on the left side of the steering
column includes your:
Turn Signal and Lane Change

Windshield Wipers

Cruise Control (Option)
Indicator
Turn Signal and Lane Change
Indicator
The turn signal has two upward (for
Right) and
two downward (for Left)
positions. These positions allow you to
signal a turn or a lane change.
To Signal a Turn:
Move the lever all the way up or down.
When the turn is finished, the lever will
return automatically.
I
A green arrow on the instrument panel
will flash in the direction of the turn or
lane change.
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 G. Circuit Breakers) and
for burned-out bulbs.

With cruise control, you can maintain a
speed of about 25 mph
(40 km/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 lun/h).
When you apply your brakes, or the
clutch pedal, the cruise control shuts
Off.

cause needless wheel spinning,
and
you could lose control. Don’t
use cruise control on slippery
roads.

To Resume a Set Speed - CAUTION
Suppose you set your cruise control at a I I A If you hold the switch at R/A 1 desired speed and then you apply the
brake or clutch pedal. This, of course,
shuts
off the cruise control. But you
don’t need to reset it. Once you’re going
about
25 mph (40 kwh) or more, you
can move the cruise control switch from
ON to R/A (which stands for Resume/
Accelerate) for about half a second.
You’ll go right back up to your chosen
speed and stay there.
,A longer than half a second, the
vehicle will keep going faster until
you release the switch or apply the
brake or clutch pedal.
You could be
startled and even lose control.
So
unless you want to go faster, don’t
hold the switch at
R/A.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To Increase Speed While Using
Cruise Control
There are two ways to go to a higher
speed. Here’s the first:
1. Use the accelerator pedal to get to
the higher speed.
2. Push the button at the end of the
lever, then release the button and the
accelerator pedal. You’ll now cruise
at the higher speed. Here’s
the second way to go to a higher
speed:
1. Move the cruise switch from ON to
R/A. Hold it there until you get up to
the speed you want, and then release
the switch.
2. To increase your speed in very small
amounts, move the switch to
R/A for
less than half a second and then
release it. Each time you do this, your
vehicle will go about
1 mph
(1.6
km/h) faster.
To Reduce Speed While Using
Cruise Control
There are two ways to reduce your
speed while using cruise control:
Push in the button at the end of the
lever until you reach the lower speed
you want, then release it.
To slow down in very small amounts,
push the button for less than half a
second. Each time you do this, you’ll
go
1 mph (1.6 kdh) slower.

Passing Another Vehicle While Using Cruise Control

your speed. When you take your foot
off
the pedal, your vehicle will slow down
to the cruise control speed you set
earlier.

Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your cruise control will work
on hills depends upon your speed, load,
and the steepness
of the hills. When
going up steep hills, you may have to
step on the accelerator pedal to
maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or
shift to a lower gear to keep your speed
down. Of course, applying the brake or
clutch pedal takes you out of cruise
control. Many drivers find this
to be too
much trouble and don't use cruise
control on steep hills.
To Get Out of Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the
cruise control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal; or
push the clutch pedal, if you have a
manual transaxle;
OR
Move the cruise switch to OFF.
To Erase Cruise Speed Memory
When you turn off the cruise control or
the ignition, your cruise control set
speed memory is erased.
