2-38 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.
A green arrow on the
instrument panel cluster 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.
If the arrow flashes faster than normal as you signal a
turn or a 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 for burned
-out bulbs and then check
the fuse (see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index).
Turn Signal On Chime
If you leave either one of your turn signals on and drive
more than 3/4 mile (1.2 km), a chime will sound to
alert you.
Headlamp High/Low Beam Changer
To change your headlamps
from low beams to high
beams, or high to low, pull
the multifunction lever all
the way toward you. Then
release it.
When the high beams are on, this blue light on the
instrument panel cluster also will be on. This light
works only when the ignition key is in the ON position.
Also, your fog lamps (if equipped) will not illuminate
when your high beams are on.

2-45 Fog Lamps (If Equipped)
To turn the fog lamps on,
press the fog lamps switch
located next to the exterior
lamp control on the left side
of the steering column. Your
ignition must be in ON for
the fog lamps to illuminate.
A light will glow on the switch to let you know that they
are on. (Your parking lamps must be on or your fog
lamps won't come on.) Press the switch again to turn the
fog lamps off. The fog lamps will go off whenever you
change to high
-beam headlamps. When you return to
low beams, the fog lamps will come on again.
Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Brightness Control
You can brighten or dim the instrument panel lights and
cluster by turning the exterior lamp knob. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase the brightness of the instrument
panel and cluster, and counterclockwise to decrease the
brightness. Your parking lamps must be on for this
feature to work.
Courtesy Lamps
When a door is opened, several lamps come on. These
lamps are courtesy lamps. They make it easy for you to
enter and leave your vehicle. You can also turn these
lamps on by turning the exterior lamps knob clockwise
all the way.
Some of the lamps have switches so you can turn them
on, even when the doors are closed. These lamps are
reading lamps.

3-3
DEFOG: This setting sends half of the air to the
floor ducts and half to the defroster and side window
outlets. The air conditioning compressor will run
automatically in this setting unless the outside
temperature is below 40
F (4
C). The air inlet
will also be automatically set to outside air. The
RECIRCULATION button will not be selectable in
this mode.
DEFROST: This setting directs most of the air
through the defroster and side window vents. Some of
the air also goes to the floor ducts. The air conditioning
compressor will run automatically in this setting unless
the outside temperature is below 40
F (4
C).
The air inlet will also be automatically set to outside air.
The RECIRCULATION button will not be selectable in
this mode.
OUTSIDE AIR: Press this button to force the
system to use outside air. This button is usable in all of
the air delivery modes on the right knob. An indicator
on the button will light up when this button is selected.
RECIRCULATION: Press this button to limit
the amount of fresh air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to limit odors entering your
vehicle. This button is usable in UPPER, LOWER and
BI
-LEVEL modes. An indicator on the button will light
up when this button is selected. The system will default
back to the outside air setting, so you will have to
reselect this setting every time you restart your vehicle.
Please note that while in the RECIRCULATION mode
the system may cause fogging of the windows when the
weather is cold and damp. To clear the fog, select either
the DEFOG or DEFROST mode and increase the fan
speed. To avoid refogging of the windows, use the
OUTSIDE AIR setting.
A/C: Press this button to turn the air conditioning
on and off. The system will cool and dehumidify the air
inside the vehicle when the A/C light and the fan are on.

3-7 Rear Window Defogger
The rear window
defogger uses a
warming grid to
remove fog from the
rear window. Press
the button marked
REAR to turn
the defogger on.
An indicator on the
button will light.
The rear window defogger will turn itself off after about
15 minutes. If you turn it on again, the defogger will
only run for about seven and one
-half minutes before
turning off. You can also turn the defogger off by
turning the ignition off or by pressing the button again.
Do not attach anything like a temporary vehicle license
or decal across the defogger grid.
NOTICE:
Don't use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs wouldn't be covered by your warranty.
Don't put decals there because you might have to
scrape them off.
