the turn signal lights and the indicator light in the instrument
cluster will flash three times.

out turn signal light bulb or malfunctioning connection in
the signal.

moved, check for a blown fuse or a burned out bulb in the
panel.

nication System, adjustments can be made using screen
operations. For further details, refer to the separate
owner’s manual.
