the front and middle-seat passengers cannot listen to two different radio
stations at the same time.)
When the rear seat controls are activated, rear seat passengers can use

rear seat controls. The headphone icon
will turn off in the radio
display.
If there is a discrepancy between the rear seat controls and the front
audio controls (such as both trying to listen to the same playing media),
the front audio system will receive the desired selection.
