Headlight leveling switch
(if so equipped)
N00537100088
The direction of the headlight beam (the direction in which the
light shines) alters according to the number of people and the
load in the vehicle. Lower the headlight angle if it is too high
due to the number of people and/or the load in the vehicle so
that the headlights’ glare does not distract the drivers of
approaching vehicles. First set the combination headlights and
dimmer switch to the “ ” position, then turn the headlight
leveling switch knob to lower the beam. The greater the num-
ber on the headlight leveling switch knob, the lower the beam
will point.
Set the switch to the appropriate position so that the headlight
beam is level with the road.

NOTEStart adjusting when the knob is at the “0” position (when
the beam is at its highest).

knob to lower the headlight beam angle.
Always return the knob to the “0” position when the load
is removed and the people have left the vehicle.
Turn signal lever
N00522600421
When changing lanes, or to making a gradual turn, hold the
lever in the “lane change” position (1). It will return to the neu-
tral position when you let go. Use the full position (2) when
making a normal turn. The lever will return to the neutral posi-
tion when the turn is complete. There may be times when the
lever does not return to the neutral position. This usually hap-
pens when the steering wheel is turned only slightly. You can
easily return the lever by hand.
Also, when you move the lever to (1) slightly then release it,
the turn signal lights and indicator light in the instrument clus-
ter will flash three times.
