KICKERHIGH PERFORMANCE SOUND SYSTEM
WITH DRIVER-SELECTABLE SURROUND (DSS) –
IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle is equipped with a state of the art audio
amplifier that provides 5.1-channel surround sound from
any stereo audio source. Anew feature of the KICKER
audio system offers the ability to choose surround sound
for any audio source or video source.
“Video Surround” is optimized for rear-seat passengers
watching a video, and “Audio Surround” is optimized
for front-seat passengers for any audio source. This
surround effect is available for audio from any source –
AM/FM/CD/ Satellite Radio or Video / Video / AUX –
and is activated through the Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC). Refer to “Driver-Selectable Surround
Sound (DSS)” under “Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)”. DSS modes for audio sources are “Stereo” and “Audio
Surround,” which is surround sound equalized for the
front seat occupants. The “Video Surround” mode is
described under “KICKER
Mobile Surround (KMS1).”
Please note that DSS effects are dependent on the mix of
the original recording. Some audio will sound better in
DSS modes, others in Stereo mode.
When in “Audio Surround” mode, balance is set auto-
matically. Fader control is available to add more sur-
round audio if desired.
The removable subwoofer is located in the rear cargo
area, and is fastened in place using the child restraint
anchors, located on the left rear passenger seatback.
