Turn Signal and Lane Change
Indicator
(CONT.)
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.
A warning chime will remind you if you
have left your turn signal on for more
than
‘/2 mile (-8 km) of driving.
. Cruise Control (OPTION)
With cruise control, you can maintain a
speed of about
25 mph (40 lun/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, the cruise
control shuts off.

A Cruise control can be
L dangerous where you can’t
I 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,
fast changes in tire traction can
cause needless wheel spinning,
and you could lose control. Don’t
use cruise control on slippery
roads.

ON.

To Resume a Sef Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a
desired speed and then you apply the
brake. This, of course, shuts
off the
cruise control. But you don’t need to
reset it. Once you’re going about
25
mph (40 lun/h) 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 If you hold the switch at R/A
- longer than half a second, the
hicle will keep going faster until
you release the switch or apply the
brake. You could be startled and
even lose control.
So unless you
want to go faster, don’t hold the
switch at
R/A.
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 lWh) faster.

To Get Out of Cruise Control
There are two ways to turn off the
cruise control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal; 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.
Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by
turning the band marked
WIPER.
For a single wiping cycle, turn the band
to
MIST. Hold it there until the wipers
start, then let go. The wipers will stop
after one cycle.
If you want more cycles,
hold the band on
MIST longer.
For steady wiping at low speed, turn the
band away
from you to the LO position.
For high speed wiping, turn the band
further, to
HI. To stop the wipers, move
the band to
OFF. Heavy snow or ice can overload your
wipers.
A circuit breaker will stop them
until the motor cools. Clear away snow
or ice to prevent an overload.
