the road is smoother.
The disc is dirty, scratched, wet or upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour
and try again.

displays an error message, write it down and provide it
to your dealer when reporting the problem.Rear Seat Entertainment System
(RSE) (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have the optional Digital Versatile
Disc (DVD) entertainment system. The entertainment
system includes a DVD player, a video display screen,
two sets of IR wireless headphones, a remote control
and an instructional video disc.
Before You Drive
The video entertainment system is for passengers in
the second and third row seats only. The driver cannot
safely view the video screen while driving and should
not try to do so.
In severe or extreme temperature conditions your
entertainment system should not be operated until the
temperature is within the operating range. This will keep
your video components from being damaged when the
temperature is below
-4F (-20C) or above 140F (60C).
To resume operation, shut off the entertainment system,
pull down the video screen and then heat or cool the vehicle
until the temperature is within the operating range.

such as a camcorder or a video game unit. The yellow
RCA jack is used for video and the red and white RCA
jacks are used for audio. You may require adapter
connectors or cables to connect your auxiliary device to
the RCA jacks. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions
for proper usage. The mini
-headphone jacks allow you
to hook up customer provided wired headphones.
To use the auxiliary audio and video inputs on the RSE,

to the RCA jacks and turn on both the auxiliary device
power and the power on the front of the RSE player.
