NOTICE
• Conserve the energy of your batteries
by turning the headphones off when
they are not in use. Headphone bat-
teries will typically work for 48 hours,
depending on the volume setting.
• The headphone has an automatic
shutoff feature to extend battery life.
The headphones will automatically
turn off after 20 seconds if they don't
detect a signal from the RSE.
• In case of poor headphone reception
performance, please check the battery
condition.
The headphones perform best when
used within 2 - 8 feet (0.6-2 m) of the
RSE LCD display. Getting too close or
too far away will cause poor reception.
• Audio from the vehicle's CD/radio
cannot be heard through the head-
phones.
Connecting Other Devices to the
RSE
Electronic devices such as video game
systems or VHS players can be played
through the RSE. These external devices
can be connected to the unit via RCA
plugs available in the vehicle.
Press the SOURCEbutton on the remote
control, or the SRCbutton on the RSE
control panel, to select and switch to the
external device inputs.
Once the RSE has switched to the exter-
nal device audio and/or video sources,
you can operate the device using its con-
trols. The RSE controls will not control
external devices.For example, to control or play a video
game after the RSE has recognized it as
the source, you must use the game con-
trols, not the RSE controls.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• To prevent noise, devices connected to
the AUX port should have the volume
adjusted high.
• If an external power connector is con-
nected to the vehicle, static noise may
occur. If noise is heard, verify the
AUX device volume is turned up, then
test the sound with the power cable
disconnected. If necessary, use the
AUX device powered from its internal
battery, or purchase a ground loop
isolator to connect the AUX device to
the vehicle.

Connect only appropriate input
sources to the RSE jacks. Be sure
to connect audio outputs from the
external device to audio inputs in
your vehicle, and video outputs to
video inputs. Connecting an incor-
rect input may cause damage to the
RSE and/or the external electronic
device.
