DIRECTION ,SIGNAL-The direction signal is a safe and convenient
means of signifying intention to turn. The lever, mounted under the
steering wheel to the left of the steering column, can be moved down-
ward to signify a left turn and upward for a right turn. Moving the
lever to the turn position
causes
the dual stop lamp and the parking
lamp on the selected side to
flash.
The lever will remain in the selected
position until the turn is completed and will then
automatically
(pro-
viding a turn of a sufficient degree is
made)
return to the neutral
position.
While the signal is in
operation,
a green arrowhead on the
instrument panel corresponding to the direction of turn indicated
will also flash.
ASH TRAY-The ash trays (a second ash
tray is standard on Bonneville and Star
Chief
Models) may
be removed by pulling
the
tray
out against the stop and depress-
ing a tab at the rear of the tray while with-
drawing. To
replace,
merely place the ash
tray
in the
grooves
provided and push into
place.
VENTILATOR CONTROLS-Two control
levers, located on the instrument panel to the
left of the steering column, are used to control
the amount of outside air entering the car
through the two duct type ventilators in the
side kick
pads.
The amount that either the left
or right lever
is
depressed will regulate
'
the
amount of air entering the car from that
par-
ticular
duct.
CIGAR LIGHTER-The cigar
lighter,
located at the right of the
ignition
'
switch, is operated by pushing inward on the
lighter.
The
lighter will stay in this position until the element heats and will then
snap out ready for
use.
