Playing a Disc
To play a disc, gently insert the disc, with the label side
up, into the loading slot. The DVD player will continue
loading the disc and the player will automatically start if
the vehicle is in ACCESSORY, ON, or RAP.
If a disc is already in the player, make sure that the
DVD player is on, then press the play/pause button on
the player faceplate or on the remote control. You
can also, press the CD AUX button on the radio
faceplate, until RSE appears on the display, to start
playing a disc.
Some DVDs will not allow fast forwarding or skipping of
the copyright information or previews. Some DVDs
will begin playing after the previews have nished. If the
DVD does not begin playing at the main title, refer to
the on-screen instructions.

To stop playing a disc, press and release the stop
button on the DVD player faceplate or the remote
control.

stopped if the disc has not been ejected.
If the disc has been ejected, the disc will resume play at
the beginning of the disc.
Ejecting a Disc
Press the eject button on the DVD player faceplate,
when the disc is stopped, to eject the disc. There is not
an eject button on the remote control.
If a disc is ejected from the player, but not removed, the
DVD player will reload the disc after a short period
of time.

The RSE system will include a remote control (batteries
not included). To use the remote control, aim it at the
transmitter window next to the RSE faceplate and press
the desired button. Direct sunlight or very bright light
may affect the ability of the transmitter to receive signals
from the remote control. If the remote control does
not seem to be working, the batteries may need to be
replaced. See “Battery Replacement” later in this
section. Objects blocking the line of sight will affect the
function of the remote control.
Notice:Storing the remote control in a hot area or

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
If your vehicle has rear seat audio (RSA), this feature
allows rear seat passengers to listen to and control any
of the following audio sources: AM/FM tuner, front
CD player, and XM™ Satellite Radio Service (if
equipped). 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 a CD in the front radio and control it
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 DVD or auxiliary device will always be available on
channel (CHA or CH1) of the wireless headphones.
All other RSA sources are available on CHB or CH2 of
the wireless headphones, as well as the wired
headphones. If the RSA is off, the wired headphones
will provide DVD or auxiliary device audio. The rear seat
passengers will not be able to listen to XM, on CHB
or CH2, if the front passenger is listening to a DVD or
auxiliary device.
The remote control will not operate any of the RSA
features.
O(Power):Press this button to turn the RSA system
on or off. RSA CHB or RSA CH2 will appear on the
display when the system is on to indicate the channel to
receive audio for the wireless headphones. Pressing
this button will also silence the rear speakers.
BAND:Press this button to switch between FM1, FM2,
AM, or XM1 or XM2 (if equipped). The selected radio
station will appear on the display. If the front passengers
are listening to the radio, the RSA will not switch
between the bands and cannot change the station.
tr/[u(Tune):When listening to the radio,
press the right or the left arrow to go to the next or the
previous station and stay there. This function is inactive if
the front seat passengers are listening to the radio.
