length SATURN OUTLOOK 2009 Owners Manual

The manufacturer’s instructions that
come with the booster seat, state
the weight and height limitations for
that booster. Use a booster seat
with a lap-shoulder belt until
the child passes the below t test:
Sit all the way back on the
seat. Do the knees bend at the
seat edge? If yes, continue.
If no, return to the booster seat.
Buckle the lap-shoulder
belt. Does the shoulder belt rest
on the shoulder? If yes,
continue. If no, try using the rear
safety belt comfort guide. See
“Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides” underLap-Shoulder Belt
on page 1-23for more
information. If the shoulder belt
still does not rest on the shoulder,
then return to the booster seat.
Does the lap belt t low and snug
on the hips, touching the thighs?
If yes, continue. If no, return
to the booster seat.
Can proper safety belt t be
maintained for the length of
the trip? If yes, continue. If no,
return to the booster seat.
Q:What is the proper way to
wear safety belts?
A:An older child should wear a
lap-shoulder belt and get the
additional restraint a shoulder
belt can provide. The shoulder
belt should not cross the face or
neck. The lap belt should t
snugly below the hips, just
touching the top of the thighs.
This applies belt force to
the child’s pelvic bones in a
crash. It should never be worn
over the abdomen, which
could cause severe or even fatal
internal injuries in a crash.
Also see “Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides” underLap-Shoulder Belt
on page 1-23.According to accident statistics,
children and infants are safer when
properly restrained in a child
restraint system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear seating
position.
In a crash, children who are not
buckled up can strike other people
who are buckled up, or can be
thrown out of the vehicle. Older
children need to use safety
belts properly.

If the vehicle starts briey but
then stops again, repeat these
steps. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine. Do not
race the engine immediately
after starting it. Operate the
engine and transmission gently
until the oil warms up and
lubricates all moving parts.
Notice:The engine is designed
to work with the electronics
in the vehicle. If you add electrical
parts or accessories, you could
change the way the engine
operates. Before adding electrical
equipment, check with your
dealer/retailer. If you do not,
the engine might not perform
properly. Any resulting damage
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.Engine Coolant Heater
The engine coolant heater can
provide easier starting and better
fuel economy during engine
warm-up in cold weather conditions
at or below 0°F (−18°C). Vehicles
with an engine coolant heater should
be plugged in at least four hours
before starting. Some models
may have an internal thermostat
in the cord which will prevent
engine coolant heater operation at
temperatures above 0°F (−18°C).
To Use the Engine Coolant
Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the
electrical cord. The cord is
located on the driver side of the
engine compartment. It is
routed around the windshield
washer uid reservoir.
3. Plug the cord into a normal,
grounded 110-volt AC outlet.
{CAUTION
Plugging the cord into an
ungrounded outlet could cause an
electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause a re. You
could be seriously injured. Plug
the cord into a properly grounded
three-prong 110-volt AC outlet.
If the cord will not reach, use a
heavy-duty three-prong extension
cord rated for at least 15 amps.
4. Before starting the engine, be
sure to unplug and store the
cord as it was before to keep it
away from moving engine
parts. If you do not, it could be
damaged.
The length of time the heater should
remain plugged in depends on
several factors. Ask a dealer/retailer
in the area where you will be
parking the vehicle for the best
advice on this.

Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that
contain both uncompressed CD
audio (.CDA les) and MP3/WMA
les. The radio plays both le formats
in the order in which they were
recorded to the disc.
MP3/WMA Format
Creating an MP3/WMA disc on a
personal computer:
Make sure the MP3/WMA les
are recorded on a CD-R or
CD-RW disc.
Do not mix standard audio and
MP3/WMA les on one disc.
The CD player is able to
read and play a maximum of
50 folders, 15 playlists, and a
combined total of 512 folders
and les.
Create a folder structure that
makes it easy to nd songs
while driving. Organize songs
by albums using one folder for
each album. Each folder or album
should contain 18 songs or less.
Avoid subfolders. The system can
support up to eight subfolders
deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum
in order to reduce the complexity
and confusion in trying to locate a
particular folder during playback.
Make sure playlists have a .mp3
or .wpl extension (other le
extensions might not work).
Minimize the length of the le,
folder, or playlist names. Long le,
folder, or playlist names, or a
combination of a large number
of les and folders, or playlists
could cause the player to be
unable to play up to the maximum
number of les, folders, playlists,or sessions. To play a large
number of les, folders, playlists
or sessions, minimize the length
of the le, folder, or playlist name.
Long names also take up more
space on the display, potentially
getting cut off.
Finalize the audio disc before
burning it. Trying to add music to
an existing disc could cause the
disc not to function in the player.
Change playlists by using
Scand
cTfolder buttons, thefknob, or
the SEEK arrows. An MP3/WMA
CD-R or CD-RW that was recorded
using no le folders can be played.
If a CD-R or CD-RW contains more
than the maximum of 50 folders,
15 playlists, and a combined total
of 512 folders and les, the player
accesses and navigates up to the
maximum, but all items over the
maximum are not accessible.

audio (.CDA les) and MP3/WMA
les depending on which slot the disc
is loaded into. By default the radio
reads only the uncompressed audio

les on the DVD deck. On the CD
deck, pressing the CAT (category)
button toggles between compressed
and uncompressed audio format,
the default being the uncompressed
format (.CDA).MP3/WMA Format

Do not mix standard audio and
MP3/WMA les on one disc.
The CD player (lower slot) is
able to read and play a maximum
combination of 512 les and
folders. The DVD player (upper
slot) is able to read 255 folders,
15 playlists and 40 sessions.

.wpl or .pls extension as other le
extensions might not work.
Minimize the length of the le,

play up to the maximum number
of les, folders, playlists, or
