The RSE system always transmits
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 the vehicle has this
feature. The DVD player can be
selected as an audio source on the
RSA system. SeeRear Seat
Audio (RSA) on page 3-111for
more information.
When a device is connected to the
A/V jacks, or the radio’s auxiliary
input jack, if the vehicle has this
feature, the rear seat passengers are
able to hear audio from the auxiliary
device through the wireless or wired
headphones. The front seat
passengers are able to listen to
playback from this device through
the vehicle speakers by selecting

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
For vehicles with Rear Seat
Audio (RSA), rear seat passengers
can listen to and control any of
the music sources: radio, CDs,
DVDs, or other auxiliary sources.
The rear seat passengers can only
control the music sources the
front seat passengers are not
listening to (except on some radios
where dual control is allowed).
For example, rear seat passengers
can control a CD and listen to it
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 RSA functions operate even
when the main radio is off. The front
audio system displays
Xwhen
the RSA is on, and disappears from
the display when it is off.Audio can be heard through wired
headphones (not included) plugged
into the jacks on the RSA. If the
vehicle has this feature, audio can
also be heard on Channel 2 of
the wireless headphones.
The audio system mutes the rear
speakers when the RSA audio
is active through the headphones.
To listen to an iPod or portable
audio device through the RSA,
attach the iPod or portable audio
device to the front auxiliary input
(if available), located on the
front audio system. Turn the iPod
on, then choose the front auxiliary
input with the RSA SRCE button.

Radio Reception
Frequency interference and static
can occur during normal radio
reception if items such as cell phone
chargers, vehicle convenience
accessories, and external electronic
devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is
interference or static, unplug the item
from the accessory power outlet.
AM
The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. For better radio
reception, most AM radio stations
boost the power levels during the
day, and then reduce these levels
during the night. Static can also
occur when things like storms and
power lines interfere with radio
reception. When this happens, try
reducing the treble on the radio.
FM Stereo
FM signals only reach about
10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km).
Although the radio has a built-in
electronic circuit that automatically
works to reduce interference,
some static can occur, especially
around tall buildings or hills, causing
the sound to fade in and out.
XM Satellite Radio Service
XM Satellite Radio Service gives
digital radio reception from
coast-to-coast in the 48 contiguous
United States, and in Canada.
Just as with FM, tall buildings or hills
can interfere with satellite radio
signals, causing the sound to fade
in and out. In addition, traveling
or standing under heavy foliage,
bridges, garages, or tunnels
may cause loss of the XM signal for
a period of time.
Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage may cause
interference with the vehicle’s radio.
This interference may occur when
making or receiving phone calls,
charging the phone’s battery,
or simply having the phone on. This
interference causes an increased
level of static while listening to
the radio. If static is received while
listening to the radio, unplug the
cellular phone and turn it off.
