At times you may notice a decrease in operating
range. This is normal for any remote keyless entry
system. If the transmitter does not work or if you
have to stand closer to your vehicle for the
transmitter to work, try this:
Check the distance. You may be too far from
your vehicle. You may need to stand closer
during rainy or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects
may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps
to the left or right, hold the transmitter
higher, and try again.
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See “Battery Replacement”
underRemote Keyless Entry System
Operation on page 99.
If you are still having trouble, see your dealer
or a quali ed technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
You can lock and unlock the vehicle’s doors and
the liftgate using the remote keyless entry
transmitter supplied with your vehicle.The remote keyless
entry transmitter shown
here is for a vehicle
equipped with the
remote vehicle start
feature and dual power
sliding doors.
The remote keyless entry transmitter supplied with
your vehicle will only contain the buttons speci c
to your vehicle’s factory installed remote
system features.
/(Remote Vehicle Start):If your vehicle has
this feature, you can start the engine from outside
the vehicle. See “Remote Vehicle Start” at the
end of this section for more detailed information.

Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your
vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a
replacement can be purchased through your
dealer. Remember to bring any remaining
transmitters with you when you go to your dealer.
When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining
transmitters must also be matched. Once your
dealer has coded the new transmitter, the
lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each
vehicle can have a maximum of four transmitters
matched to it.
See your dealer to match transmitters to another
vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote
keyless entry transmitter should last about three
years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter
will not work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it is probably time to change
the battery.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry. Static
from your body transferred to these surfaces
may damage the transmitter.
1. Insert a at object, such as a coin, into the
slot on the side of the transmitter and twist it
to separate the halves.

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.

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,

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.

become worn or damaged. The headphone foam
ear pads can become damaged if they are not
handled or stored properly. If the foam ear pads do
become damaged or worn out, the pads can be
replaced separately from the headphone set.
It is not necessary to replace the complete
headphone set.
