Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
Your vehicle may have rear seat audio (RSA). This
feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to and
control any of the music sources: radio, CDs, or other
auxiliary sources. However, the rear seat passengers can
only control the music sources the front seat passengers
are not listening to. For example, rear seat passengers
can control and listen to a CD 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 can be operated even when the
main radio is off. The front audio system will display the
headphone icon when the RSA is on, and will disappear
from the display when it is off.
The audio system mutes the rear speakers when the
RSA audio is active through the headphones.
Audio can be heard through wired headphones
(not included) plugged into the jacks on the RSA.
If your vehicle has this feature, audio can also be
heard on Channel 2 of the wireless 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.
The area above the top row of buttons on the RSA
faceplate is not a display. Infrared transmitters are
located in this area for the wireless headphones.

Rear Seat Audio Controls
The following function is controlled by the main radio:
Front seat passengers can turn the RSA off by
quickly pressing the front radio power knob twice.
Headphones
The RSA includes two wireless headphones that are
dedicated to this system. These headphones are used
to listen to media such as CDs or radio. The wireless
headphones have an On/Off button and a volume control.
Push the power button to turn on the headphones. An
indicator light located on the headphones comes 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.
Infrared transmitters are located on the rear seat audio
faceplate above the top row of buttons. This area is
not a display. The headphones shut off automatically
to save the battery power if the RSA shuts off or if the
headphones are out of range of the transmitters for more
than three minutes. If you move too far forward or step
out of the vehicle, the headphones lose the audio signal.The headphones automatically turn off after four 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. Headphones should be worn with
the headband over the top of the head for best audio
reception. The symbol L (Left) appears on the upper left
side, above the ear pad and should be positioned on the
left ear. The symbol R (Right) appears on the upper right
side, above the ear pad and should be positioned on the
right ear.
Notice:Do not store the headphones in heat or
direct sunlight. This could damage the headphones
and repairs will not be covered by the warranty.
Storage in extreme cold can weaken the batteries.
Keep the headphones stored in a cool, dry place.
If the foam ear pads attached to the headphones
become worn or damaged, the pads can be replaced
separately from the headphone set. Contact your
dealer/retailer for more information.
