Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever
The lever on the left side of the steering column
includes the following:
G: Turn and Lane Change Signals
53: Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
N: Windshield Wipers
L: Windshield Washer
J: Cruise Control
Flash-to-Pass.
Information for these features is on the pages following.
Turn and Lane-Change Signals
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster flashes in the
direction of the turn or
lane change.
Move the lever all the way up or down to signal a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash
to signal a lane change. Hold it there until the lane
change is complete.
The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or a lane change the arrows
flash rapidly or do not come on, a signal bulb may be
burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. For bulb replacement, seeTaillamps,
Turn Signal, Stoplamps and Back-up Lamps on
page 6-53. For a blown fuse or circuit breaker,
seeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 6-111.

Turn Signal On Chime
If a turn signal is left on for more than 3/4 of a mile
(1.2 km), a chime will sound at each flash of the turn
signal and the message TURN SIGNAL will also appear
in the DIC. To turn the chime and message off, move
the turn signal lever to the off position.
See “TURN SIGNAL” underDIC Warnings and
Messages on page 4-37for more information.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
23Headlamp High/Low Beam Changer:Push
the turn signal/multifunction lever away from you to turn
the high beams on.
Pull the lever towards you to return to low beams.
This indicator light turns on in the instrument panel
cluster when the high beam headlamps are on.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature lets you use the high-beam headlamps to
signal a driver in front of you that you want to pass.
It works even if the 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 will turn on.
They will stay on as long as the lever is held toward
you. The high-beam indicator on the instrument
panel cluster will come on. Release the lever to
return to normal operation.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper controls are located on the
multifunction lever. They are controlled by turning
the band with this
zsymbol.
The windshield wipers work in all ignition positions,
except off. This includes the Retained Access Power
mode. SeeRetained Accessory Power (RAP) on
page 3-18.
