manufacturer’s instructions for proper connection of the
auxiliary device.To use the auxiliary inputs on the RSE system, connect
an external auxiliary device to the color-coded RCA
jacks and turn both the auxiliary device and the
RSE system power on. If the RSE system had been
previously in the DVD player mode, pressing the SRCE
button on the faceplate or the remote control will
switch the RSE system between the auxiliary device
and the DVD player.
How to Change the Video Format when in
the Auxiliary Mode

Auxiliary Battery
The auxiliary battery provision, if equipped, can be used
to supply electrical power to additional equipment that
you may choose to add.
If your vehicle has this
provision, this relay will be
located on the passenger’s
side of the vehicle, next
to the auxiliary battery.
When using this provision, connection should only be
made to the upper stud (A) of the relay. Do not
make connections to the lower stud (B) of the relay.The auxiliary battery circuit is protected by a megafuse
located behind the auxiliary battery.
Be sure to follow the proper installation instructions that
are included with any electrical equipment that you
install.
Notice:Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain the battery. Always turn
off electrical equipment when not in use and do
not use equipment that exceeds the maximum
amperage rating for the auxiliary battery provision.
