change the arrows flash rapidly or
do not come on, a signal bulb may
be burned out.

page 10‑51.
Turn Signal on Chime

has been on for more than 1.2 km
(0.75 miles) of driving.

signal on for more than 1.2 km
(0.75 miles), turn off the signal
and then turn it back on.Fog Lamps
Use fog lamps for better vision in
foggy or misty conditions.
The fog lamps control is located on
the multifunction lever next to the
exterior lamp control.
#(Fog Lamps): Turning the band
to this position will turn the fog
lamps on.
When you turn the fog lamps on,
the fog lamp light will appear on the
instrument panel cluster to indicate
that the fog lamps and the parking
lamps are on.
If you turn the high-beam
headlamps on, the fog lamps will
turn off. They will turn on again
when you switch to low-beam
headlamps.
The ignition must be on for the fog
lamps to operate.
Some localities have laws that
require the headlamps to be on
along with the fog lamps.

Electrical System
Electrical System
Overload
The vehicle has fuses and circuit
breakers to protect against an
electrical system overload.
When the current electrical load is
too heavy, the circuit breaker opens
and closes, protecting the circuit
until the current load returns to
normal or the problem is fixed.
This greatly reduces the chance
of circuit overload and fire caused
by electrical problems.
