Turn Signal On Chime If you leave either one of your turn signals on and drive more than 3/4 mile (1.2 km), a chime will sound to alert you. Flash-to-Pass Feature This feature lets you use your high-beam headlamps to signal the driver in front of you that you want to pass. It works even if your headlamps are off. To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you a little, but not so far that you hear a click. If the headlamps are off or the low beams are on, the high-beam headlamps will turn on. They'll stay on as long as you hold the lever toward you and the high-beam indicator on the dash will come on. Release the lever to turn the high-beam headlamps off. Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer To change your headlamps from low beams to high beams, or high to low, pull the multifunction lever all the way toward you. Then release it. When the high beams are on, this blue light on the instrument panel cluster also will be on. Windshield Wipers When the ignition key is in the ACC or ON position, you can control the windshield wipers by turning the band marked WIPER. For a single wiping cycle, turn the band to MIST. Hold it there until the wipers start, then let go. The wipers will stop after one cycle. If you want more cycles, hold the band on MIST longer. For steady wiping at low speed, turn the band to LO. For high-speed wiping, turn the band further, to HI. To stop the wipers, turn the band to OFF. This light works only when the ignition key is in the ON position, and your fog lamps (if equipped) will not be illuminated when your high beams are on. 2-47
