the turn or lane change.
Move the the lever all the way up or down to signal

Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash to

The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or lane change the arrows flash

burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers

A chime sounds if the turn signal has been on for more
than three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km) of driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal on for more than
three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km), turn off the signal and
then turn it back on.
