Q: How do I flash the high beams?
How do I flash the high beams?
You can flash the high beams to get someone’s attention, or to alert other drivers. To do so pull the turn signal lever towards you, and then release it. The high beams will flash on and then off, and the lever will return to its original position.
Tip
The high beam flash feature can be used even when the headlights are off.
