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 493and 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.

Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low to high
beam, push the lever toward the instrument panel.
To return to low-beam headlamps, pull the
multifunction lever toward you. Then release it.
When the high beams
are on, this indicator light
on the instrument panel
cluster will also be on.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you use your high-beam
headlamps to signal a driver in front of you that
you want to pass. It works even if your headlamps
are in the automatic position.To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you,
then release it.
If the headlamps are in the automatic position or
on low beam, the high-beam headlamps turn
on. They will stay on as long as you hold the lever
toward you. The high-beam indicator on the
instrument panel cluster comes on. Release the
lever to return to normal operation.
Windshield Wipers
8(Mist):Turn the band to mist, for a single
wiping cycle. Hold it there until the wipers
start. Then let go. The wipers will stop after
one wipe. If more wipes are needed, hold the
band on mist longer.
9(Off):Move the band to off, to stop
the wipers.

Cruise Control
Your vehicle has cruise
control. The controls are
located on the end of
the turn signal/
multifunction lever.
R(On):Move the switch to this position to turn
the cruise control system on.
S(Resume/Accelerate):Move the switch to this
position to resume a set speed or to accelerate.
T(Set):Press this button, located at the end of
the lever, to set a speed.
9(Off):Move the switch to this position to turn
the cruise control system off and cancel memory
of a set speed.With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of
about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can
really help on long trips. Cruise control does not
work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
If you apply the brakes, the cruise control shuts off.
{CAUTION:
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady speed.
So, do not use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
