2007 CHEVROLET TRAIL BLAZER mirror

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The turn signal has two upward (for right) and
two downward (for left) positions. These positions
let you 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
returns automatically.
An arrow on the
instrument panel
cluster ashes in the
direction of the turn
or lane change.
To signal a lane change, raise or lower the lever
until the arrow starts to ash. Hold it there until you
complete your lane change. The lever returns
by itself when released. The bottom of the outside
rearview mirrors might also have lane change
indicators.As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the
arrows ash more quickly than normal, a signal
bulb could 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. If the arrows do not go on at all when
you signal a turn, check the fuse. SeeFuses
and Circuit Breakers on page 503and check for
burned-out bulbs.
If you have a trailer towing option with added
wiring for the trailer lamps, a turn signal asher
is used. With this asher installed, the signal
indicator ashes even if a turn signal bulb
is burned out. Check the front and rear turn signal
lamps regularly to make sure they are working.
Turn Signal On Chime
If your turn signal is left on for more than
3/4 of a mile (1.2 km), a chime sounds at each
ash of the turn signal. To turn off the chime,
move the turn signal lever to the off position.

slight change in engine performance when the
air conditioning compressor shuts off and turns
on again. This is normal.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of
high humidity (moisture) condensing on the
cool window glass. This can be minimized if the
climate control system is used properly. There
are two modes to choose from to clear fog or
frost from your windshield. Use the defog mode to
clear the windows of fog or moisture and warm
the passengers. Use the defrost mode to remove
fog or frost from the windshield more quickly.
Turn the right knob clockwise or counterclockwise
to select one of the following modes:
-(Defog):This mode directs the air to the
oor outlets, windshield and side window outlets.
The recirculation button cannot be selected
while in defog mode.
1(Defrost):This mode directs most of the
air to the windshield and the side window outlets,
with only a little air directed to the oor outlets.The air conditioning compressor may run to
dehumidify the air to prevent window fogging.
The recirculation button cannot be selected while
in defrost mode. Do not drive the vehicle until
all the windows are clear.

If your vehicle has heated mirrors, this button will
activate them.

inside of the rear window. If you do, you could
cut or damage the warming grid, and the repairs
would not be covered by your warranty. Do not
attach a temporary vehicle license, tape, a decal
