3-22 Seats and Restraints
A seat-mounted side impact airbag
is designed to inflate on the side of
the vehicle that is struck.
Roof-rail airbags are designed to
inflate in moderate to severe side
crashes depending on the location
of the impact. In addition, these
roof-rail airbags are designed to
inflate during a rollover or in a
severe frontal impact. Roof-rail
airbags are not designed to inflate in
rear impacts. Both roof-rail airbags
will inflate when either side of the
vehicle is struck, if the sensing
system predicts that the vehicle is
about to roll over on its side, or in a
severe frontal impact.
In any particular crash, no one can
say whether an airbag should have
inflated simply because of the
vehicle damage or repair costs.
What Makes an Airbag
Inflate?
In a deployment event, the sensing
system sends an electrical signal
triggering a release of gas from theinflator. Gas from the inflator fills the
airbag causing the bag to break out
of the cover. The inflator, the airbag,
and related hardware are all part of
the airbag module.
For airbag locations, see
Where Are
the Airbags? on page 3-19.
How Does an Airbag
Restrain?
In moderate to severe frontal or
near frontal collisions, even belted
occupants can contact the steering
wheel or the instrument panel. In
moderate to severe side collisions,
even belted occupants can contact
the inside of the vehicle.
Airbags supplement the protection
provided by safety belts by
distributing the force of the impact
more evenly over the
occupant's body.
Rollover capable roof-rail airbags
are designed to help contain the
head and chest of occupants in the
outboard seating positions in the first and second rows. The rollover
capable roof-rail airbags are
designed to help reduce the risk of
full or partial ejection in rollover
events, although no system can
prevent all such ejections.
But airbags would not help in many
types of collisions, primarily
because the occupant's motion is
not toward those airbags. See
When
Should an Airbag Inflate? on
page 3-21.
Airbags should never be regarded
as anything more than a supplement
to safety belts.
What Will You See after
an Airbag Inflates?
After the frontal airbags and
seat-mounted side impact airbags
inflate, they quickly deflate, so
quickly that some people may not
even realize an airbag inflated.
Roof-rail airbags may still be at least
partially inflated for some time after
they deploy. Some components of
the airbag module may be hot for

5-4 Instruments and Controls
If equipped with Rainsense™
windshield wipers, the moisture
sensor is next to the inside rearview
mirror and is mounted on the
windshield. When active, these
sensors are able to detect moisture
on the windshield and automatically
turn on the wipers.
To turn on the Rainsense feature,
the wipers must be set to one of the
five delay settings on the lever.
Each of the five settings adjusts the
sensitivity of the sensor.
Since different drivers have different
setting preferences, it is
recommended that the mid-range
setting (position 3) be used initially.
For more wipes, select the higher
settings; for fewer wipes, select the
lower settings located closer to the
off position on the lever.
The sensor automatically controls
the frequency of the wipes from the
off setting to the high speed setting
according to the weather conditions.The wipers can be left in a
Rainsense mode even when it is not
raining.
Windshield Washer
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Pull the windshield wiper lever to
spray windshield washer fluid and
activate the wipers. The wipers will
continue until the lever is released
or the maximum wash time is
reached.
Rear Window Wiper/
Washer
The rear wiper and rear wash button
is on the instrument panel above the
climate control system.
=(Rear Wiper/Washer): Press to
wash and wipe the rear window.
The rear window washer uses the
same reservoir as the windshield
washer. Check the windshield
washer reservoir level if the front
windshield can be worked, but no
fluid is sprayed when the rear
washer is activated. See Washer
Fluid on page 10-20.
5(Delay): Press to turn the
delayed wiping on or off.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass in
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
Compass Zone
The zone is set to Zone 8 upon
leaving the factory. Your dealer will
set the correct zone for your
location.
Under certain circumstances, such
as during a long distance
cross-country trip or moving to a
new state or province, it will be

This light also comes on when the
fuel level is low. When fuel is added,
the light should go off. If it does not,
have the vehicle serviced.
Security Light
The security light should come on
briefly as the engine is started. If the
system is working normally, the
indicator light turns off. If it does not
come on, have the vehicle serviced
by your dealer.
If the light stays on and the engine
does not start, there could be a
problem with the theft-deterrent
system. This light is also used to indicate the
status of the anti-theft alarm system
when the ignition is turned off. The
light will flash rapidly if the alarm
system is arming and one or more
of the monitored entry points is not
closed. The light will stay on if the
alarm is arming and all entry points
are closed.

Programming
If equipped, these buttons are in the
overhead console.
This system can replace up to three
remote control transmitters used to
activate devices such as garage
door openers, security systems, and
home automation devices. These
instructions refer to a garage door
opener, but can be used for other
devices. Do not use the Universal Remote
system with any garage door opener
that does not have the stop and
reverse feature. This includes any
garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Read these instructions completely
before programming the Universal
Remote system. It may help to have
another person assist with the
programming process.
Keep the original hand-held
transmitter for use in other vehicles
as well as for future programming.
Erase the programming when
vehicle ownership is terminated.

To change from playback by artist to
playback by album, press the
softkey below the Sort label. From
the sort screen, push one of the
softkeys below the album label.
Press the softkey below the Back
label to return to the main music
navigator screen. Now the album
name is displayed on the second
line between the arrows, and songs
from the current album begin to
play. Once all songs from that
album are played, the player moves
to the next album in alphabetical
order on the CD-R/CD-RW and
begins playing MP3 files from that
album.
To exit music navigator mode, press
the softkey below the Back label to
return to normal MP3 playback.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that
contain both uncompressed CD
audio (.CDA files) and MP3 files. By
default the radio reads only the
uncompressed audio and ignores
the MP3 files. Pressing the CAT(category) button toggles between
compressed and uncompressed
audio format.
MP3 Supported File and Folder
Structure
To burn an MP3 disc on a personal
computer:
.Make sure the MP3 files are
recorded on a CD-R or
CD-RW disc.
.Do not mix standard audio and
MP3 files on one disc.
.The CD player is able to read
and play a maximum of
50 folders, 50 playlists, and
255 files.
.Create a folder structure that
makes it easy to find 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 .m3u
or .wpl extension; other file
extensions may not work.
.Minimize the length of the file,
folder, or playlist names. Long
file, folder, or playlist names,
or a combination of a large
number of files, folders,
or playlists can cause the player
to be unable to play up to the
maximum number of files,
folders, playlists, or sessions. To
play a large number of files,
folders, playlists or sessions,
minimize the length of the file,
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 can cause the
disc not to function in the player.
Playlists can be changed by using
S candc T, the tune knob,
or the SEEK arrows. An MP3 CD-R
or CD-RW that was recorded using
no file folders can also be played.
If a CD-R or CD-RW contains more
than the maximum of 50 folders,
50 playlists, and 255 files, the
player can access and navigate up
to the maximum, but all items over
the maximum are not accessible.
Root Directory
The root directory of the CD-R or
CD-RW is treated as a folder. If the
root directory has compressed audio
files, the directory displays as F1
ROOT. All files contained directly
under the root directory are
accessed prior to any root directory
folders. However, playlists (Px) are
always accessed before root folders
or files. Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists
somewhere in the file structure that
contains only folders/subfolders and
no compressed files directly
beneath them, the player advances
to the next folder in the file structure
that contains compressed audio
files. The empty folder does not
display.
No Folder
When the CD contains only
compressed files, the files are under
the root folder. The next and
previous folder functions do not
display on a CD that was recorded
without folders or playlists. When
displaying the name of the folder,
the radio displays ROOT.
When the CD contains only playlists
and compressed audio files, but no
folders, all files are under the root
folder. The folder down and up
buttons search playlists (Px) first
and then go to the root folder. When
the radio displays the name of the
folder the radio displays ROOT.Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or
CD-RW are played in the following
order:.Play begins from the first track in
the first playlist and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last
track of the last playlist has
played, play continues from the
first track of the first playlist.
.Play begins from the first track in
the first folder and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each folder. When the last track
of the last folder has been
played, play continues from the
first track of the first folder.
When play enters a new folder, the
display does not automatically show
the new folder name unless the
folder mode is chosen as the default
display. The new track name
displays.
