2008 CHEVROLET UPLANDER audio

Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the le
structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no
compressed les directly beneath them, the player
advances to the next folder in the le structure that
contains compressed audio les. The empty folder
does not display.
No Folder
When the CD contains only compressed les, the les
will be located under the root folder. The next and
previous folder functions do not function on a CD
that was recorded without folders or playlists.
When displaying the name of the folder the radio
displays ROOT.
When the CD contains only playlists and compressed
audio les, but no folders, all les are located under the
root folder. The folder down and the folder up buttons
search playlists (Px) rst and then go to the root folder.
When the radio displays the name of the folder the
radio displays ROOT.
Order of Play
Tracks are played in the following order:
Play begins from the rst track in the rst playlist
and continues sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last track of the last playlist
has played, play continues from the rst track of
the rst playlist.
If the CD does not contain any playlists, then play
begins from the rst track under the root directory.
When all tracks from the root directory have played,
play continues from les according to their numerical
listing. After playing the last track from the last folder,
play begins again at the rst track of the rst folder or
root directory.
When play enters a new folder, the display does
not automatically show the new folder name unless
the folder mode was chosen as the default display.
See the information button later in this section for
more information. The new track name displays.

File System and Naming
The song name that displays is the song name that is
contained in the ID3 tag. If the song name is not present
in the ID3 tag, then the radio displays the le name
without the extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or four pages
are shortened. Parts of words on the last page of
text and the extension of the lename does not display.
Preprogrammed Playlists

WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™ software

using the radio. These playlists are treated as special
folders containing compressed audio song les.

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 (RSE)
System
Vehicles with a Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) system
have a DVD player, a video display screen, auxiliary
inputs, two sets of wireless headphones, and a remote
control.
Parental Control
rj
(Parental Control):This button is located behind
the video screen, next to the auxiliary jacks. Press this
button while using rear seat audio (RSA) to make the
video screen go blank and to mute the audio while a DVD
or CD is playing. The power indicator lights on the DVD
player ash. Turning on the parental control also disables
all other button operations from the remote control andthe DVD player, except for the eject button. Press this
button again to restore operation of the RSA, DVD player,
and remote control.
This button can also be used to turn the DVD player
power on and to automatically resume play of a disc that
is in the player while the ignition is on. If no disc is in the
player, the system powers up with no display on the LCD
screen.
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.
Normal operation could 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
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.
Storage in extreme cold can weaken the batteries.
Keep the headphones stored in a cool, dry place.

Wireless Headphones
The RSE system may include two sets of wireless
headphones (batteries may be included with the
headphone sets).
The wireless headphones have an ON/OFF switch, a
channel select switch, and a volume control. To use the
headphones, turn the ON/OFF switch to ON. An indicator
light on the headphones come on. If the light does not
come on, the batteries might 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 shut off automatically to save
the battery power if the RSE system is 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 the person using the
headphones moves too far forward or steps out of
the vehicle, the headphones lose the audio signal.
DVD and auxiliary audio are always 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 located on the headphones.
If there is a decreased audio signal during CD, MP3, or
DVD play, there could be a low hissing noise through
the speakers and/or headphones. If the hissing sound inthe wireless headphones seems excessive, make sure
that the headphone batteries are fully charged. Some
amount of hissing is normal.
Both sets of rear seat headphones could include foam
ear pads that can be replaced.
These foam ear pads can become worn or damaged
if they are not handled or stored properly. They can
be replaced separately from the headphone set.
See your dealer/retailer for more information.
Battery Replacement
To change the batteries on the headphones, do the
following:
1. Turn the screw to loosen the battery door located
on the left side of the headphones. Slide the
battery door open.
2. Replace the two batteries in the compartment.
Make sure that they are installed correctly, using the
diagram on the inside of the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery door and tighten the door
screw.
If the headphones are to be stored for a long period of
time, remove the batteries, and keep them in a cool,
dry place.

located behind the video screen, next to the
auxiliary jacks.

DVD on / RSA on: The wired headphones plays
RSA audio.
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 input, the red RCA jack for
right audio input, and the white RCA jack for left audio
input. 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.
3-104

To use the auxiliary audio and video inputs, 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.
If a disc is present when the RSE power is turned on,
the player automatically begins playing the disc. Press
the AUX button on the remote control or the DVD AUX
button on the DVD player faceplate to switch the system
between the DVD player and the auxiliary device. See
“DVD Player” and “Remote Control” later in this section
for more information.

heard through the following sources:
Wireless Headphones
