Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The turn signal has the following posi­tions: two upward (for right) and two downward (for left). These positions allow you to signal a turn or lane change. To signal a lane change, raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash. The lever will return by itself when released.
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or down. A chime will sound if you leave the turn signal on for more than 3/4 mile (1.2 km).
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, a symbol located in the instrument panel will illuminate.
Flash-to-Pass
This feature uses the vehicle’s high beams to alert the driver in front of you that you intend to pass. To use it, pull the turn signal lever toward you slightly, but not so far that you hear a click. The high beams will remain on for as long as you hold the lever toward you.
Windshield Wipers
To operate the windshield wipers, turn the WIPER band located on the multi­function lever upward or downward.
Daytime Running Lamps/ Automatic Headlamp Control
Daytime Running Lamps are an addi­tional safety feature that makes it easier for others to see your vehicle during the day. The headlamp system works auto­matically to help provide the right amount of lighting at all times of the day or night. You can still turn your head­lamps on manually whenever you wish.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Delayed Headlamp Illumination
If the Automatic Headlamp Control sys­tem turns on your headlamps, they will stay on for 90 seconds after you turn off the ignition. Delayed Headlamp Illumination provides lighting when exit­ing your car and the lamps shut off auto­matically. This feature can be turned off by following the instructions in your Owner Manual.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.

•Turn and Lane-Change Signals
