Black plate (4,1)Chevrolet Captiva Sport Owner Manual - 2013 - crc - 11/12/12
6-4 Lighting Raise or lower the lever until the
arrow starts to flash and then
release, to signal a lane change.
The turn signal flashes
automatically three times.
The lever returns to its starting
position whenever it is released.
If after signaling a turn or lane
change the arrow flashes rapidly or
does not come on, a signal bulb
may be burned out.
Have any burned out bulbs
replaced. If a bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. See Instrument
Panel Fuse Block on page 10 ‑ 33 .
Fog Lamps For vehicles with fog lamps, the
button is on the instrument panel
next to the exterior lamp control.
# (Fog Lamps): Press to turn the
fog lamps on or off.
The fog lamp indicator in the
instrument panel comes on when
the fog lamps are in use.
The parking lamps or low-beam
headlamps must be on, before the
fog lamps can be turned on.
If the exterior lamp control is set to
AUTO mode, the parking lamps and
low-beam headlamps come on
simultaneously when the fog lamps
are turned on.
When the high-beam headlamps are
turned on, the fog lamps turn off
automatically. When the high-beam
headlamps are turned off, the fog
lamps come on again.
Some localities have laws that
require the headlamps to be on with
the fog lamps. Interior Lighting Instrument Panel
Illumination Control The thumbwheel for this feature is
on the left side of the steering wheel
next to the exterior lamp control.
Turn the thumbwheel to the right or
left to brighten or dim the instrument
panel lights.

Driving and Operating 9-41When turning with a trailer, make
wider turns than normal so the
trailer will not strike soft shoulders,
curbs, road signs, trees or other
objects. Use the turn signal well in
advance and avoid jerky or sudden
maneuvers.
Turn Signals When Towing a
Trailer The turn signal indicators on the
instrument cluster flash whenever
signaling a turn or lane change.
Properly hooked up, the trailer
lamps also flash, telling other
drivers the vehicle is turning,
changing lanes or stopping.
When towing a trailer, the arrows on
the instrument cluster flash for turns
even if the bulbs on the trailer are
burned out. Check occasionally to
be sure the trailer bulbs are still
working. Driving on Grades Reduce speed and shift to a lower
gear before starting down a long or
steep downgrade. If the
transmission is not shifted down, the
brakes might have to be used so
much that they would get hot and no
longer work well.
The vehicle can tow in D (Drive).
Use a lower gear if the transmission
shifts too often.
When towing at high altitude on
steep uphill grades, engine coolant
boils at a lower temperature than at
normal altitudes. If the engine is
turned off immediately after towing
at high altitude on steep uphill
grades, the vehicle could show
signs similar to engine overheating.
To avoid this, let the engine run
while parked, preferably on level
ground, with the transmission in
P (Park) for a few minutes before
turning the engine off. If the
overheat warning comes on, see
Engine Overheating on page 10 ‑ 18 .Parking on Hills
{ WARNINGParking the vehicle on a hill with
the trailer attached can be
dangerous. If something goes
wrong, the rig could start to move.
People can be injured, and both
the vehicle and the trailer can be
damaged. When possible, always
park the rig on a flat surface.
If parking the rig on a hill:
1. Press the brake pedal, but do
not shift into P (Park) yet. Turn
the wheels into the curb if facing
downhill or into traffic if facing
uphill.
2. Have someone place chocks
under the trailer wheels.
3. When the wheel chocks are in
place, release the brake pedal
until the chocks absorb the load.
