Connecting Other Devices to the RSE
Electronic devices such as video game
systems, VHS players, Camcorder or etc,
can be played through the RSE. These
external devices can be connected to the
unit via RCA plugs available throughout
the vehicle. DC power for additional elec-
tronic equipment is provided by one of the
12-volt power outlets located in the dash.
Additional information can be found in the
vehicle manual.
Press the SOURCE (SRC) Button to
switch to the externally connected device.
(AUX mode)The RSE unit has an automatic video
detection feature that will automatic switch
to external device when the device is
plugged into the auxiliary jacks in the vehi-
cle.
Once the RSE has switched to the exter-
nal device, you can make your selections
by using the buttons on the external
device. The RSE controls will not work for
external devices. For example, to select a
video game after the RSE has recognized
the source, you must use the game con-
trols, not the RSE controls, to choose a
selection.
The RSE unit will automatically switch to
the RSE mode when the external device is
unplugged from the auxiliary jacks.
The display mode can be changed by
DISP( ) button.
✽
NOTICE
Only external devices that have an
active video source - such as video game
systems or VHS players - can be read by
the RSE. The RSE will not play an
external device that only has an audio
source, such as a cassette player or other
CD player.
✽
NOTICE
When using an external device connect-
ed to the power outlet, noise may occur
during playback. If this happens, use
the power source of the external device.
Cleaning of Display
If the LCD display becomes dusty or
dirty, clean it by wiping gently with a soft,
dry, clean cloth.
CAUTION
Connect only appropriate input
sources to the RSE jacks.
Connecting an incorrect input may
cause damage to the player and/or
the external electronic device.
