cassette tapes, CDs, DVD, and auxiliary device.
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. Be aware that
the front seat audio controls always have priority over
the RSA controls. 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. The DVD
or auxiliary device will always be available on channel
A of the headphones. All other sources are available on
channel B. You will not be able to listen to XM, on
channel B, if you are listening to a DVD or an auxiliary
device on channel B and vice versa.
