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
Your vehicle may have the Digital Versatile
Disc (DVD) Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
system. The RSE system includes a DVD player,
a video display screen, two sets of wireless
headphones, and a remote control.
280
When using the wired headphones, if the front
seat passengers play a CD in the Radio with
Six-Disc CD (if equipped) or use XM™ Satellite
Radio Service (if equipped), you will hear the audio
for these sources, instead of the DVD or CD
that is currently playing through the RSE.
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.
Both sets of rear seat headphones may include
foam ear pads that can be replaced.
Foam ear pads on these headphones may
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.
The headphone replacement foam ear pads can
be ordered in pairs. See your dealer for more
information.Battery Replacement
To change the batteries, do the following:
1. Loosen the screw on the battery compartment
door located on the left side of the headphone
earpiece.
2. Replace the two AAA batteries in the
compartment. Make sure that they are
installed correctly, using the diagram on the
inside of the battery compartment.
3. Tighten the screw to close the
compartment door.
If the headphones are to be stored for a long
period of time, remove the batteries and keep them
in a cool, dry place.
