As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows
flash very fast, a 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 on
page
5-92 ) and check for burned-out bulbs.
Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than 0.8 miles
(1.3 km), a chime will sound at each flash of the turn
signal and the DIC will display the TURN SIGNAL

reminder message. To turn off the chime and
message, move the turn signal lever to the
off position.
To turn off the DIC message while the turn signal is
still active, press any button on the DIC. See

drive from a dark area into a bright area like a lighted
parking lot.
If this happens, turn on your headlamps with
the exterior lamps control.

sensor on top of the instrument panel. Don’t cover it
up.

headlamp lighting will turn on.
Fog Lamps

activate the parking lamps. Turning on the front and rear
fog lamps will automatically activate the parking lamps
and headlamps.

off the fog lamps, turn the band to OFF. The
front fog lamps will also turn
off when you turn on your
high-beam headlamps, but
will turn on again when
you switch to low beams.
