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 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 the arrows ash very fast as you signal a turn or a
lane change, a signal bulb may be burned out and other
drivers will not see your turn signal. If a bulb is burned
out, replace it to help avoid an accident. SeeBulb
Replacement on page 5-67.
If the arrows do not go on at all when you signal a turn,
check the fuse. SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on
page 5-111.
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 ash 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
beam, push the lever forward. To change from high
beam to low beam, pull the turn signal lever toward you,
then release it.

2. Adjust the seat, if necessary, before setting the
height using the IMAGE switch.
Press and hold the top of the IMAGE switch, raising
the HUD image as far as possible. Then press on
the bottom of the HUD IMAGE switch to move
the image down, so the image is as low as possible,
but in full view.
3. Turn the INTENSITY knob counterclockwise until
the HUD image is no brighter than necessary. To
turn the HUD off, turn the HUD INTENSITY knob all
the way counterclockwise.
If the sun comes out, or it becomes cloudy, or if you
turn on your headlamps, you may need to adjust
the HUD brightness using the HUD INTENSITY knob.
Polarized sunglasses could make the HUD image
harder to see.
Clean the inside of the windshield as needed to remove
any dirt or lm that reduces the sharpness or clarity
of the HUD image.Spray household glass cleaner on a soft, clean cloth.
Wipe the HUD lens gently, then dry it. Do not spray
cleaner directly on the lens, because the cleaner uid
could leak inside the unit.
If you cannot see the HUD image when the ignition is
on, check to see if:
The HUD unit is covered.
The HUD INTENSITY knob is adjusted correctly.
The HUD image is adjusted to the proper height.
A fuse in the fuse panel may have blown. See
Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-111.
If the HUD image is not clear, it could be too bright.
Move the HUD INTENSITY knob counterclockwise. You
may need to clean the windshield and HUD lens.
Your windshield is part of the HUD system. If you ever
have to have a new windshield, be sure to get one
designed for HUD. If you do not, the HUD image may
look blurred and out of focus.
