2007 BUICK TERRAZA audio

Playing an MP3
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up.
The player pulls it in, and READING appears
on the display. The CD should begin playing and
the CD symbol appears on the display.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD in
the player it stays in the player. When the ignition
or radio is turned on, the CD starts to play
where it stopped, if it was the last selected audio
source.
As each new track starts to play, the track number
appears on the display.
The CD player can play the smaller 3 inch (8 cm)
single CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs
and the smaller CDs are loaded in the same
manner.
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality (and playback
performance) may be reduced due to the CD-R
quality, method of recording, the quality of
the music that has been recorded, and the way
the CD-R has been handled. For better playback
performance when home burning audio discs,
use brand named CD media showing the Compact
Disc™, and a burn rate no faster than 12X.There may be an increase in skipping, difficulty in
nding tracks, and/or difficulty in loading and
ejecting. If these problems occur, check the bottom
surface of the CD. If the surface of the CD is
damaged, such as cracked, broken, or scratched,
the CD will not play properly. If the surface of
the CD is soiled, seeCare of Your CDs and DVDs
on page 343for more information.
If there is no apparent damage, try a known
good CD.
Do not add any label to a CD, it could get caught
in the CD player. If a CD is recorded on a
personal computer and a description label is
needed, try labeling the top of the recorded CD
with a marking pen.
Notice:If you add any label to a CD, insert
more than one CD into the slot at a time, or
attempt to play scratched or damaged CDs, you
could damage the CD player. When using the
CD player, use only CDs in good condition
without any label, load one CD at a time, and
keep the CD player and the loading slot free of
foreign materials, liquids, and debris.
If an error appears on the display, see
“CD Messages” later in this section.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction. Technology
alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.
Rear Seat Entertainment System
(Option A, Uplevel)
Your vehicle may have this type of DVD Rear
Seat Entertainment (RSE) system. If it has
this feature, it will include a DVD player, a video
display screen, auxiliary inputs, two sets of
wireless headphones (if included), and a remote
control.
Parental Control
rj
(Parental Control):This button is located
behind the video screen, below the auxiliary jacks.
Press this button while using RSA, or when a
DVD or CD is playing to blank the video screen
and to mute the audio. The power indicator
lights on the DVD player will ash. Turning on the
parental control will also disable all other button
operations from the remote control and the
DVD player, except for the eject button. Press this
button again to restore operation of the RSA,
DVD player, and remote control.
This button may also be used to turn the DVD
player power on and automatically resume play
if the vehicle is on and a disc is in the player.
If no disc is in the player, the system will power
up in auxiliary mode.
282

Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers
only. The driver cannot safely view the video
screen while driving and should not try to do so.
The RSE system will play DVD, CD, and MP3
discs. You can also connect an auxiliary device to
the RSE system to play games, watch videos,
look at pictures, etc.
Normal operation may be limited under extremely
low or high temperatures, in order to protect
the system from damage. Operate the RSE system
under normal or comfortable cabin temperature
ranges.
Headphones
Wireless Headphones
The RSE system may include two sets of wireless
headphones (batteries are included).
The wireless headphones have an ON/OFF
switch, a channel select switch, and a volume
control. To use the headphones, turn the switch
to ON. An indicator light on the headphones
will illuminate. If the light does not illuminate, the
batteries may need to be replaced.See “Battery Replacement” later in this section for
more information. Switch the headphones to
OFF when not in use.
The headphones will shut off automatically to save
the battery power if the RSE system is shut off
or if the headphones are out of range of the
transmitters for more than three minutes. The
transmitters are located next to the DVD faceplate.
If you move too far forward or step out of the
vehicle, the headphones will lose the audio signal.
DVD and auxiliary audio will always be found
on channel (CHA or CH1) of the wireless
headphones. RSA audio is dedicated to CHB or
CH2 of the wireless headphones.
To adjust the volume on the wireless headphones,
use the volume control.
Notice:Do not store the headphones in heat
or direct sunlight. This could damage the
headphones and repairs will not be covered by
your warranty. Keep the headphones stored
in a cool, dry place.
If there is a decreased audio signal during CD,
MP3, or DVD play, there may be a low hissing
noise through the speakers and/or headphones.

Stereo RCA Jacks
The RCA jacks are located behind the video screen
on the DVD console. The RCA jacks allow audio
and video signals to be connected from an auxiliary
device such as a camcorder or a video game unit to
the RSE. The yellow RCA jack is used for video
inputs, the red RCA jack for right audio inputs, and
the white RCA jack for left audio inputs. The system
requires standard RCA cables, not included, to
connect the auxiliary device to the RCA jacks. Refer
to the manufacturer’s instructions for proper usage.

connect an external auxiliary device such as a
camcorder to the RCA jacks and turn on both the
auxiliary device power and the power on the
front of the RSE player.

on, the player will automatically begin playing
the disc and the user will need to press the AUX
button on the remote control or on the DVD
player faceplate to switch the system between the
DVD player and the auxiliary device. See “DVD
