Ejecting a Disc
Press the eject button on the radio to eject the
disc. If a disc is ejected from the radio, but

short period of time. The disc will be stored in
the radio. The radio will not resume play of the disc
automatically. If the RSA system is sourced to
the DVD, the movie when reloaded into the DVD
player will begin to play again. In case loading
and reading of a DVD or CD cannot be completed
(unknown format, etc.), and the disc fails to
eject, press and hold the DVD Eject button more
than 5 seconds to force the disc to eject.

Using the Auxiliary Input Jack(s)
Your radio system has an auxiliary input jack
located on the lower right side of the faceplate.
This is not an audio output; do not plug the
headphone set into the front auxiliary input jack.
You can however, connect an external audio
device such as an iPod, laptop computer, MP3
player, CD player, or cassette tape player, etc. to
the auxiliary input jack for use as another
source for audio listening.
To use a portable audio player, connect a
3.5 mm (1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front
auxiliary input jack. When a device is connected,
the radio automatically begins playing audio
from the device over the vehicle speakers.
To listen to a device through the rear auxiliary input
over the speakers, cycle the DVD/CD Aux button
on the radio faceplate until “Rear Aux Input” is
displayed on the radio. The RSA or DVD Screen
must be on in order for the radio to source to rear
auxiliary.

volume of the portable player. You may need to do
additional volume adjustments from the portable
device if the volume does not go loud or soft
enough.

when a portable audio device is playing. The
portable audio device will continue playing, so you

Press this button again and the system will
automatically search for an auxiliary input device,
such as a portable audio player.If a portable audio player is not connected, “no
aux input device” will be displayed. If a disc is in
both the DVD slot and the CD slot the DVD/CD
AUX button will cycle between the two sources and
not indicate “no aux input device”. If a front
auxiliary device is connected, the DVD/CD AUX
button will cycle through all available options, such
as: DVD slot, CD slot, Front AUX, and Rear
AUX (if available). See “Using the Auxiliary Input
Jack(s)” later in this section, orRear Seat
Entertainment System on page 321, “Audio/Video

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 a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system
works with the vehicle’s audio system. The
DVD player is part of the front radio. The RSE
system includes a radio with a DVD player, a video
display screen, two wireless headphones, and a
remote control. SeeRadio with CD and DVD
(MP3) on page 295for more information on the
vehicle’s audio/DVD system.
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.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the
RSE system may or may not work until the
temperature is within the operating range.
The operating range for the RSE system is above
−4°F (−20°C) or below 140°F (60°C). If the
temperature of your vehicle is outside of this
range, heat or cool the vehicle until the
temperature is within the operating range of the
RSE system.
321
Parental Control
The Rear Seat Entertainment System may have a
Parental Control feature, depending on which
radio you have. The Parental Control feature will
turn off the video screen and Rear Seat Audio
(RSA). This feature also disables all button
operations from the remote control and all audio
button operations from the RSA. This feature
can be used to gain the attention of the rear
passengers that are using headphones.
To enable Parental Control press and hold the radio
power button for more than 2 seconds. If on, the
radio, video screen, and RSA will turn off. If a DVD
and/or CD is playing, it will be stopped. A “padlock”
icon or a text message may be displayed on the
radio display depending on which radio you have,
while Parental Control is on. The radio can be
turned back on with a single press of the power
button and used normally, but the RSE system will
remain in Parental Control.To turn off Parental Control, press and
hold the radio power button for more than
2 seconds. The video screen and RSA will return
to the state they were in before Parental Control
was turned on. The “padlock” icon will disappear
from the radio display.
Parental Control can also be turned off by inserting
or ejecting any disc, an ignition cycle, or pressing
the “play” icon on the radio DVD display menu.
322
Headphones
The RSE includes two 2–channel wireless
headphones that are dedicated to this system.
These headphones are used to listen to media
such as CDs, DVDs, MP3s, DVDAs, radio, or any
auxiliary source connected to the auxiliary input
jack, if your vehicle has this feature or A/V
jacks. The wireless headphones have an ON/OFF
button channel 1/2 switch, and a volume control.
If your vehicle has a third row video screen
display, it will have two additional headphones.Push the power button to turn on the headphones.
An indicator light located 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. Channel 1 is dedicated to the video
screen, while Channel 2 is dedicated to RSA
selections.
The infrared transmitters are located at the rear of
the RSE overhead console. The headphones
will shut off automatically to save the battery power
if the DVD system is shut off or if the headphones
are out of range of the transmitters for more
than 3 minutes. If you move too far forward or step
out of the vehicle, the headphones will lose the
audio signal.
The headphones will automatically turn off after
4 hours of continuous use.
To adjust the volume on the headphones, use the
volume control located on the right side.
For optimal audio performance, the headphones
must be worn correctly. The symbol L (Left)
will appear on the upper left side, above the ear
pad and should be positioned on the left ear.

How to Change the Video Format When in
the Auxiliary Mode

Audio Output
Audio from the DVD player or auxiliary inputs may
be heard through the following possible sources:
Wireless Headphones
Vehicle Speakers
Vehicle wired headphone jacks on the rear
seat audio system, if your vehicle has this
feature.The RSE system will always transmit the audio
signal to the wireless headphones, if there is audio
available. See “Headphones” earlier in this
section for more information.
The DVD player is capable of outputting audio to
the wired headphone jacks on the RSA system,
if your vehicle has this feature. The DVD
player may be selected as an audio source on the
RSA system. SeeRear Seat Audio (RSA) on
page 332for more information.
When a device is connected to the A/V jacks the
rear seat passengers will be able to hear audio
from the auxiliary device through the wireless or
wired headphones. The front seat passengers
will be able to listen to playback from this device
through the vehicle speakers by selecting AUX
as the source on the radio.
If a playback device is plugged into the radio’s
auxiliary input jack, the front seat passengers will
be able to listen to playback from this device
through the vehicle speakers by selecting AUX as
the source on the radio.
