Follow Me Home/Headlight Delay
When this feature is selected, the driver can choose to
have the headlights remain on for a preset period of
time after the engine is turned OFF.
Activation
Remove the key or turn the ignition to the STOP
(OFF/LOCK) position, and pull the multifunction lever
toward the steering wheel within two minutes. Each
time the lever is pulled, the activation of the lights will
be extended by 30 seconds. The activation of the lights
can be extended to a maximum of 210 seconds.

Pull the multifunction lever toward the steering wheel
and hold it for more than two seconds.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the
arrows on each side of the instrument cluster flash to
show proper operation of the front and rear turn signal
lights.NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective
outside light bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the
lever is moved, it would suggest that the indicator bulb
is defective.
Lane Change Assist

the detent, and the turn signal (right or left) will flash
five times then automatically turn off.
