2-34 Turn and Lane Change Signals
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.
The signal indicator will flash even if a turn signal bulb
is burned out. Check the front and rear turn signal lamps
regularly to make sure they are working.
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) and for burned
-out bulbs.Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than 3/4 of a mile
(1.2 km), a chime will sound at each flash of the turn
signal. To turn off the chime, move the turn signal lever
to the off position.
Headlamp High/Low Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high or high
to low, pull the multifunction lever all the way toward
you. Then release it.
When the high beams are
on, this indicator light on
the instrument panel will
also be on.
Flash-To-Pass Feature
This feature lets you use your high-beam headlamps to
signal a driver in front of you that you want to pass.
It works even if your headlamps are in the
automatic position.
To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you, but not
so far that you hear a click.

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to any
of the music sources including AM
-FM, cassette tapes
and CDs. However, the rear seat passengers can only
control the music sources that the front seat passengers
are not listening to. For example, rear seat passengers
may listen to a cassette tape through headphones while
the driver listens to the radio through the front speakers.

The rear seat passengers have control of the volume for
each set of headphones. Be aware that the front seat
audio controls always override the Rear Seat Audio
(RSA) controls. Note that if the front seat passengers
switch the source for the primary radio to a remote
source, the RSA will play the same remote source. The
rear speakers will be muted when the RSA power is
turned on. You may operate the RSA functions even
when the primary radio power is off.
Note that this feature is intended for rear
seat passengers.

counterclockwise to decrease volume. Push the knob
back into its stored position when you're not using it.
