2-45 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.
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 as you signal a turn or lane change,
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 ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index).Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
When the high-beams are
on, this light on the
instrument panel also will
be on.
To change the headlamps from low beam to high or high
beam to low, pull the turn signal lever all the way
toward you. Then release it.

When you're turning with a trailer, make wider turns than
normal. Do this so your trailer won't strike soft shoulders,
curbs, road signs, trees or other objects. Avoid jerky or
sudden maneuvers. Signal well in advance.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle may need a
different turn signal flasher and/or extra wiring. Check
with your dealer. The 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 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 transmission overheating.
If you are towing a trailer and you have an automatic
transmission with overdrive, you may prefer to drive in
DRIVE (D) instead of AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE ()
(or, as you need to, a lower gear). Or, if you have a
manual transmission with FIFTH (5) or SIXTH (6) gear.
It is better not to use FIFTH (5) or SIXTH (6) gear. Just
drive in FOURTH (4) gear (FIFTH (5) gear if you have
a six
-speed manual transmission--or, as you need to, a
lower gear).
Parking on Hills
CAUTION:
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.

Before replacing a headlamp bulb that does not light,
check to make sure that the wiring connector is securely
fastened to it.
See ªReplacement Bulbsº in the Index to check the type

headlamp bulb with one that is exactly the same.
1. Open the hood.
2. Locate the headlamp bulb that needs to be replaced.
3. Press and turn the base one-quarter turn
counterclockwise. (See arrows).
4. Remove the socket with the burned lamp.
5. Replace the bulb and insert the socket into
the headlamp.
Front Parking and Turn Signal
1. Using a screwdriver, remove the plastic screws from
the access panel under the vehicle. Move the access
panel out of the way.
2. Turn the bulb and socket counterclockwise.
3. Pull out the bulb.
4. Reverse the steps with a new bulb.
