Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to and
control any of the music sources: radio, cassette
tapes and CDs. However, the rear seat passengers can
only control the music sources that the front seat
passengers are not listening to. For example, rear seat
passengers may listen to a cassette tape or CD
through 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 front seat audio controls always have priority
over the RSA controls. If the front seat passengers
switch the source for the main radio to a remote source,
the RSA will play the same remote source. The rear
speakers will be muted when the RSA power is turned
on. You may operate the RSA functions even when
the main radio is off.
Primary Radio Controls
The following function is controlled by the knob on the
main radio:
PWR (Power):Push this knob twice to turn RSA off.
Rear Seat Radio Controls
The following functions are controlled by the RSA
system buttons:
PWR (Power):Press this button to turn RSA on or off.
VOL (Volume):Press this knob lightly so it extends.
Turn the knob to increase or to decrease volume.
Push the knob back into its stored position when you’re
not using it. The upper VOL knob controls the upper
headphone and the lower VOL knob controls the lower
headphone.
