TURN SIGNALS
To signal a turn, push the headlight/
turn signal lever up or down to position
1.
The engine switch must be in the “ON”

it by hand after you change lanes.
To signal a lane change, move the lever
up or down to the pressure point (position

er than normal, a front or rear turn signal
bulb has burned out.
Headlight beam level control
MS14004a
To adjust the headlight beam level, turn
the switch.
The following list shows examples of prop-
er switch settings. For loading conditions
other than those listed, adjust the dial
position so that the beam level is the
same as the one obtained according to
the list when only the driver is in the
vehicle. The higher the number of the dial
position, the lower the headlight beam lev-
el.
CAUTION
Always keep the headlight beam at
the proper level, or your headlights
may dazzle other road users, causing
unexpected accidents.
