Seats and Restraints 3-31
The manufacturer 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 fit test below:
.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, if available.
See“Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides” underLap-Shoulder Belt
on page 3-12. If a comfort guide
is not available, or if the
shoulder belt still does not rest
on the shoulder, then return to
the booster seat.
.Does the lap belt fit low and
snug on the hips, touching the
thighs? If yes, continue. If no,
return to the booster seat.
.Can proper safety belt fit 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 fit
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 3-12.
According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained 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.
{Warning
Never allow more than one child
to wear the same safety belt. The
safety belt cannot properly spread
the impact forces. In a crash, they
can be crushed together and
seriously injured. A safety belt
must be used by only one person
at a time.

Infotainment System 7-13
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.

8-6 Climate Controls
heat or cool the vehicle faster. The
@button indicator light is lit
whenever the recirculation mode
is on.
Press the
8button to change to
outside air. However, the
recirculation mode may turn back on
automatically.
In cold weather, if the fan and air
delivery modes are in automatic, the
system starts at lower fan speeds to
avoid directing cold air into the
vehicle until warmer air is available.
The climate control system directs
air to the floor, but may
automatically change modes as the
vehicle warms up to maintain the
chosen temperature setting. The
length of time needed to warm the
interior depends on the outside
temperature and inside temperature
of the vehicle.
Manual Operation
9(Fan Control): Turn clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the fan speed. To turn the fan off, turn the left knob to the
9
position. In any setting other than
off, the fan runs continuously with
the ignition on. The fan must be
turned on to run the air conditioning
compressor. There will be some
airflow noticeable from the various
outlets when driving, even with the
fan in the off position. To turn off the
air completely, turn the fan to
9
and select the
@button.
Temperature Control: Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise to
increase or decrease the
temperature. Select the desired
cabin air temperature between
16-32°C (60-90°F). Typically, the
best setting is near 23°C (75°F).
Choosing the coldest or warmest
temperature setting does not cause
the system to heat or cool any
faster.
Air Delivery Mode Control: Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise to
change the current airflow mode. Select from the following air delivery
modes:
H
(Vent): Air is directed to the
instrument panel outlets.
) (Bi-Level): Air is divided
between the instrument panel
outlets and the floor outlets.
6 (Floor): Air is directed to the
floor outlets with some air directed
to the windshield.
When this mode is selected, the
system turns the recirculation mode
off. Recirculation mode cannot be
selected while in floor mode. This is
to help prevent window fogging.
- (Defog): Clears the windows of
fog or moisture. Air is directed to the
floor outlets, with some air directed
to the windshield and side window
outlets. In this mode, the system
turns the recirculation mode off and
runs the air conditioning compressor
unless the outside air is at or below
freezing. Recirculation mode cannot
be selected while in defog mode.
This helps prevent window fogging.
