driver seat adjustment PONTIAC TORRENT 2009 Owners Manual

Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
The vehicle has a shoulder belt height adjuster for the
driver and right front passenger seating positions.
Adjust the height so that the shoulder portion of the belt
is centered on the shoulder. The belt should be away
from the face and neck, but not falling off the shoulder.
Improper shoulder belt height adjustment could reduce
the effectiveness of the safety belt in a crash.
Squeeze the release
buttons (A) together and
move the height adjuster
to the desired position.
After the height adjuster is set to the desired position,
try to move it up or down without squeezing the release
buttons to make sure it has locked into position.
Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has safety belt pretensioners for front
outboard occupants. Although the safety belt
pretensioners cannot be seen, they are part of the
safety belt assembly. They can help tighten the safety
belts during the early stages of a moderate to severe
frontal and near frontal crash if the threshold conditions
for pretensioner activation are met.
Pretensioners work only once. If the pretensioners
activate in a crash, they will need to be replaced,
and probably other new parts for the vehicle’s safety
belt system. SeeReplacing Restraint System Parts
After a Crash on page 1-71.
Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides
Rear shoulder belt comfort guides may provide added
safety belt comfort for older children who have outgrown
booster seats and for some adults. When installed on
a shoulder belt, the comfort guide positions the belt
away from the neck and head.

Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
The radio system has an auxiliary input jack located
on the lower right side of the faceplate. This is not
an audio output; do not plug the headphone set into
the front auxiliary input jack. An external audio device
such as an iPod, laptop computer, MP3 player, CD
changer, etc. can be connected to the auxiliary input
jack for use as another source for audio listening.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in P (Park). SeeDefensive Driving
on page 4-2for more information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary input jack.
When a device is connected, press the radio CD/AUX
button to begin playing audio from the device over
the vehicle speakers.
O(Power/Volume):Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
volume of the portable player. Additional volume
adjustments might need to be made from the portable
device if the volume does not go loud or soft enough.
BAND:Press to listen to the radio when a portable
audio device is playing. The portable audio device
continues playing until it is powered off.CD/AUX (CD/Auxiliary):Press to play a CD when a
portable audio device is playing. Press again and the
system begins playing audio from the connected portable
audio player. If a portable audio player is not connected,
No Input Device Found or No Aux may display.
DVD/CD AUX (CD/Auxiliary) (Radio with CD and
DVD):Press to cycle through DVD, CD, or Auxiliary
while listening to the radio. The DVD/CD text tab and
a message showing track or chapter number displays
when a disc is in either slot. Press again and the system
automatically searches for an auxiliary input device, such
as a portable audio player. If a portable audio player is
not connected, “No Aux Input Device” displays. If a disc
is in both the DVD slot and the CD slot the DVD/CD AUX
button cycles between the two sources and does not
indicate “No Aux Input Device”. If a front auxiliary device
is connected, the DVD/CD AUX button cycles through
all available options, such as: DVD slot, CD slot, Front
AUX, and Rear AUX (if available). See “Using the
Auxiliary Input Jack(s)” later in this section, orRear
Seat Entertainment (RSE) System on page 3-109,
“Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks” for more information.
