Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever

includes the following:
·Turn and Lane-Change Signals
·Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
·Flash-to-Pass Feature
·Cruise Control
For information on exterior lamps, see
Exterior Lamps
on page 3-12.
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 multifunction lever all the
way up or down. When the turn is ®nished, the lever will
return automatically.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster will ¯ash 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 ¯ash. Hold it there until you
complete your lane change. The lever will return by itself
when you release it.
If you signal a turn or a lane change and the arrows
¯ash faster than normal, a signal bulb may be burned out.
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 fuses and check for burned-out
bulbs. See
Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-86.

Windshield Wiper Blade
Replacement
Windshield wiper blades should be inspected at least
twice a year for wear or cracking. See ªWiper Blade
Checkº under
Part B: Owner Checks and Services on
page 6-8for more information.
Replacement blades come in different types and are
removed in different ways. For the proper type and
length, see
Normal Maintenance Replacement Parts on
page 5-94.
It's a good idea to clean or replace the wiper blade
assembly every six months.
Notice:Use care when removing or installing a
blade assembly. Accidental bumping can cause the
arm to fall back and strike the windshield.
To remove the wiper blade assembly, do the following:
1. Open the hood to gain access to the windshield
wipers.
2. Lift the wiper arm until it locks into a vertical
position.
