‘I
I
A
green
arrow
on
the
instrument
panel
will
flash in
the direction
of the turn or lane
change.
To
signal a
lane change, just raise or lower
the
lever
until
the
green
arrow
starts to
flash. Hold it there until
you
complete
your
lane
change. The lever
will
return
by
itself
when
you
release it.
As
you signal a
turn
or
a
lane change, if the
arrows
don’t
flash but just stay
on,
a signal bulb
may be burned out and
other drivers won’t
see
your
turn
signal.
If a
bulb is burned
out,
replace
it
to
help
avoid
an
accident.
If the
green
arrows
don’t go
on
at
all
when
you
signal a
turn,
check
the
fuse (see “Fuses”
in the Index) and for burned-out
bulbs.
If
you have a trailer towing
option
with
added
wiring
for the trailer lights, a
different turn signal flasher is used.
With this flasher installed,
the signal
indicator will flash even
if
a
turn signal bulb is burned out. Check
the front
and rear turn signal lights regularly to make sure
they are working.
Operation
of
Lights
Although
your
vehicle’s
lighting system (headlights, parking lights, fog
lamps, side marker lights and
taillights)
meets
all
applicable
federal lighting
requirements, certain states and
provinces
may
apply
their own
lighting
regulations that may
require special attention
before
you
operate
these
lights.
For example,
some jurisdictions may
require
that
you
operate
your
fog
lamps only
when
your
lower
beam
headlights are also
on,
or that
headlights
be turned
on
whenever
you
must
use
your
windshield
wipers.
In
addition,
most jurisdictions prohibit
driving solely with
parking lights, especially at
dawn or dusk. It is
recommended
that
you
check
with
your
own
state
or
provincial
highway
authority for applicable lighting regulations.
