2009 SATURN AURA AUX

Battery Run-Down Protection
The battery run-down feature is designed to protect the
vehicle’s battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, reading lamps, or dome
lamp) is left on when the ignition is turned off, the
battery run-down protection system automatically shuts
the lamp off after 20 minutes. This prevents draining
of the battery.
To reactivate the interior lamps, do one of the following:
Open any door.
Press any Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
button.
Press the power door lock switch.
Press the remote trunk release.
Turn the lamp that was left on to off and then to on
again.
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
Accessory power outlets can be used to connect
auxiliary electrical equipment, such as a cellular
telephone.
There are two accessory power outlets. One accessory
power outlet is inside the center storage console and
the other is located on the center storage console below
the climate controls.
To use an outlet, lift the protective cap. When not in use,
always cover the outlet with the protective cap. The
accessory power outlet is operational at all times.
Notice:Leaving electrical equipment plugged in for
an extended period of time while the vehicle is off
will drain the battery. Power is always supplied
to the outlets. Always unplug electrical equipment
when not in use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum 20 ampere rating.

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
Your vehicle may have rear seat audio (RSA). This
feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to and
control any of the music sources: radio, CDs, or other
auxiliary sources. However, the rear seat passengers can
only control the music sources the front seat passengers
are not listening to. For example, rear seat passengers
can control and listen to a CD through the headphones,
while the driver listens to the radio through the front
speakers. The rear seat passengers have control of the
volume for each set of headphones.
The RSA functions can be operated even when the
main radio is off. The front audio system will display the
headphone icon when the RSA is on, and will disappear
from the display when it is off.
The audio system mutes the rear speakers when the
RSA audio is active through the headphones.
Audio can be heard through wired headphones
(not included) plugged into the jacks on the RSA.
If your vehicle has this feature, audio can also be
heard on Channel 2 of the wireless headphones.
To listen to an iPod or portable audio device through the
RSA, attach the iPod or portable audio device to the front
auxiliary input (if available), located on the front audio
system. Turn the iPod on, then choose the front auxiliary
input with the RSA SRCE button.
The area above the top row of buttons on the RSA
faceplate is not a display. Infrared transmitters are
located in this area for the wireless headphones.
