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 for burned-out bulbs
and a blown fuse
(see “Fuses” in the Index).
Headlight High-Low Beam
To change the
headlights
from low
beam to high or high
to low, pull the turn
signal lever
all the
way toward
you. Then
release
it.

Headlights-On Reminder
A buzzer will sound when your headlights are turned on and your ignition is

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) Indicator Light
(Canada On/y)
If your vehicle was
first sold, when new,
in Canada, you will
have this light on the
instrument panel.
It goes on whenever
the Daytime Running
Lights are on.
Daytime Running Lights (Canada On/y)
The Canadian Federal Government has decided that “Daytime Running
Lights” (DRL)
are a useful feature, in that DRL can make your vehicle more
visible to pedestrians and other drivers during daylight hours. DRL are
required on new vehicles sold in Canada.
The high beam headlights will come on at reduced brightness in daylight
when:
The ignition is on,
The headlight switch is off, and
The parking brake is released.
When you turn on your headlights, the DRL will switch
off and the exterior
lights will come on. When you turn
off the headlights, the exterior lights
will go out and the high beams will change to the reduced brightness of
DRL again. The
DRL indicator light on the instrument panel will go on
whenever the DRL are on. This light means that only the DRL are on. When
you turn on your exterior lights, this light will go out.
Of course, you may still turn on the headlights any time
you need to.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL
off, set the parking brake. The DRL will
stay
off until you release the parking brake.

Indicator light, if you
have one,
is located

SHIFT and the upshift arrow, is used on some
models with manual transmissions. Depending on your particular model,
your vehicle may
not have this light. The SHIFT indicator light will help
you get the best fuel economy. See “Shift Light” or “Shift Speeds-
Vehicles Without Shift Light”
in this section for more information.
Headlight High Beam Indicator Light
light is located near
the middle left edge of
the instrument cluster.
The high beam indicator
is on whenever you use your high beam headlights.

Nighf Vision
No one can see as well at night as in the daytime. But as we get older these
differences increase. A 50-year-old driver may require at least twice as
much light to see the same thing at night as a 20-year-old.
What
you do in the daytime can also affect your night vision. For example,
if you spend the day in bright sunshine you are wise to wear sunglasses.
Your eyes
will have less trouble adjusting to night. But if you’re driving,
don’t wear sunglasses at night. They may cut down
on glare from
headlights, but they also make a lot of things invisible.
You can be temporarily blinded by approaching lights. It can take a second
or two, or even several seconds, for your eyes
to readjust to the dark. When
you are faced with severe glare (,as from a driver
who doesn’t lower the high
beams,
or a vehicle with misairned headlights), slow down a little. Avoid
staring directly into the approaching lights.
Keep your windshield and all the glass on your vehicle clean
- inside and
out. Glare at night is made much worse by dirt
on the glass. Even the inside
of the glass can build up a film caused by dust. Dirty glass makes lights
dazzle and flash more than clean glass would, making
the pupils of your
eyes contract repeatedly.
Remember that
your headlights light up fir less of a roadway when you are
in a turn or curve. Keep your eyes moving; that way, it’s easier to pick out
dimly lighted objects. Just
as your headlights should be checked regularly
for proper aim,
so should your eyes be examined regularly. Some drivers
suffer from night blindness
- the inability to see in dim light - and aren’t
even aware
of it.
