CD Messages
If the CD comes out, it could be for one of the following
reasons:
It is very hot. When the temperature returns to
normal, the CD should play.
You are driving on a very rough road. When the
road becomes smoother, the CD should play.
The CD is dirty, scratched, wet, or upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour and
try again.
There may have been a problem while burning
the CD.
The label may be caught in the CD player.
If the CD is not playing correctly, for any other reason,
try a known good CD.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays an
error message, write it down and provide it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.
Listening to a DVD
If your vehicle has the Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
system and a DVD is playing, the DVD symbol will
appear on the radio display indicating that the DVD is
available and can be listened to through your vehicle’s
speakers. To listen to the DVD, press the TAPE
DISC button until RSE appears on the radio display.
The current radio source will stop and the DVD sound
will come through the speakers. To stop listening to
the DVD, press the TAPE DISC button, if a cassette
tape or a CD is loaded, or press the BAND button
to select a different source.
When the RSE system is turned off, the DVD symbol
will go off of the radio display and RSE OFF will appear
on the radio display. The radio will return to the last
radio source that you were listening to.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may be equipped with an AM-FM navigation
radio system that includes digital sound processing
(DSP), Radio Data System (RDS) with program type
(PTY) selections that will seek out the kind of music you
want to listen to and XM™ Satellite Radio Service
capabilities (48 contiguous US states, if equipped). The
radio system can also communicate with your navigation

and emergency alert communications. For information on
how to use this system, see the “Navigation System”
manual.Navigation/Radio Display and Controls

Rear Seat Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have the optional Digital Versatile Disc
(DVD) Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) system. The
RSE system includes a DVD player, a video display
screen, two sets of wireless headphones, and a remote
control.
Before You Drive
The RSE system is for rear seat passengers. The driver
cannot safely view the video screen while driving and
should not try to do so.
DVD Player
The DVD player is located in the overhead console.
The DVD player can be controlled by the buttons on the
DVD player or by the buttons on the remote control.
See “Remote Control” later in this section for more
information.
The DVD player power may be turned on when the
ignition is in RUN, ACCESSORY, or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.The RSE system DVD player is only compatible with
DVDs of the appropriate DVD region code for the
country that the vehicle was sold in. The DVD region
code is printed on the jacket of most DVDs.
Standard audio CDs (CD-R and CD-RW discs) can also
be played in this DVD player.
When using the wired headphones, if the front seat
passengers play a CD in the Radio with Six-Disc CD
(if equipped) or use XM™ Satellite Radio Service
(48 contiguous US states, if equipped), you will hear the
audio for these sources, instead of the DVD or CD
that is currently playing through the RSE.
If an error message appears on the video screen, see
“DVD Messages” later in this section.
