Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The turn signal has one upward (for right) and
one 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, raise or lower the lever
until the arrow starts to ash. Hold it there until you
complete the lane change. The lever will return
by itself when you release it.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the
arrows ash rapidly, a signal 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 do not go on at all when you
signal a turn, check the fuse, seeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 380and for burned-out bulbs.

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier
for others to see the front of your vehicle during
the day. DRL can be helpful in many different
driving conditions, but they can be especially
helpful in the short periods after dawn and before
sunset. Fully functional daytime running lamps
are required on all vehicles rst sold in Canada.
The DRL system will make your low-beam
headlamps come on at a reduced brightness in
daylight when the following conditions are met:
The ignition is on,
the exterior lamp band is in AUTO,
the transaxle is not in PARK (P),
the light sensor determines it is daytime, and
the parking brake is released.When the DRL are on, the low-beam headlamps
will be on at a reduced brightness. The taillamps,
sidemarker and other lamps will not be on.
The instrument panel will not be lit up either.
When you turn the exterior lamp band to
the headlamp position, your regular headlamps
will come on. The other lamps that come on with
your headlamps will also come on.
When you turn off the headlamps, the regular
lamps will go off, and your low-beam headlamps
will come on to the reduced brightness.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, move the
shift lever to PARK (P). The DRL will stay off
until you move the shift lever out of PARK (P).
To override the DRL on manual transaxle vehicles,
you must set the parking brake while the ignition
is off and then start your vehicle. The DRL will stay
off until you release the parking brake.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the
regular headlamp system when you need it.
