Cleaning the Video Screen
Pour some isopropyl or rubbing alcohol on a
clean cloth and gently wipe the video screen.
Do not spray directly onto the screen and do not
press too hard or too long on the video screen.
Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen
to any of the sources: radio, CDs, or DVDs.
However, the rear seat passengers can only
control the sources that the front seat passengers
are not listening to. For example, rear seat
passengers can listen to and control CDs or
DVDs through the headphones 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 is not able to
control the source. You can operate the rear
seat audio when the main radio is off.
