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. 
An  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  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  arrows  don’t  go on at all  when  you 
signal  a  turn,  check  the  fuse  (see  “Fuses  and  Circuit 
Breakers’’  in  the  Index)  and  for burned-out  bulbs.

The  green  arrows  on your  instrument  panel  will  flash 
whenever  you  signal  a  turn  or lane  change.  Properly 
hooked  up,  the  trailer  lamps  will  also flash, telling  other 
drivers  you’re  about  to turn,  change  lanes  or  stop. 
When  towing  a  trailer,  the  green  arrows  on your 
instrument  panel  will  flash  for turns  even if the  bulbs  on 
the  trailer  are burned  out.  Thus,  you  may  think  drivers 
behind  you  are seeing  your signal  when  they  are not. 
It’s  important  to check  occasionally  to  be  sure  the  trailer 
bulbs  are still  working. 
Driving  On  Grades 
Reduce  speed  and  shift  to a lower gear before you  start 
down 
a long  or steep  downgrade.  If  you  don’t  shift 
down,  you  might  have  to use  your  brakes 
so much  that 
they  would  get hot  and  no longer  work  well. 
On  a  long  uphill  grade,  shift  down  and  reduce  your 
speed  to  around 
45 mph (70 km/h)  to  reduce  the 
possibility  of  engine and  transaxle  overheating. 
Parking  on Hills 
You  really  should  not  park  your  vehicle,  with  a  trailer 
attached,  on a  hill.  If  something  goes  wrong,  your 
rig 
could  start  to move.  People  can  be  injured,  and  both 
your  vehicle  and  the  trailer  can be  damaged. 
But  if you  ever  have  to park  your  rig  on a  hill,  here’s 
how  to  do 
it: 
1. Apply  your  regular  brakes,  but  don’t  shift  into 
2. Have  someone  place  chocks  under  the  trailer  wheels.  PARK 
(P) yet. 
3. When  the  wheel 
chocks are in place,  release  the 
regular  brakes  until  the  chocks  absorb  the load. 
4. Reapply  the  regular  brakes.  Then  apply  your  parking 
brake,  and  then  shift  to PARK 
(P). 
5. Release  the  regular  brakes.
