Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
(Without Entertainment System)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to and
control any of the sources: radio and CDs. However,
the rear seat passengers can only control the sources
that the front seat passengers are not listening to.
For example, rear seat passengers may listen to and
control a 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 not be able to control the remote source.
You can operate the RSA when the main radio is off.

the RSA will not be able to control the remote source.
You can operate the RSA when the main radio is off.
The DVD or auxiliary device will always be available on
