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.
The following functions are controlled by the RSA
system:
n(Volume):Turn this knob to increase or to
decrease the volume. The left knob controls the left
wired headphones and the right knob controls the right
wired headphones.
O(Power):Press this button to turn the system on
or off. The rear speakers are muted when the RSA
power is turned on.
SRCE (Source):Press this button to switch between
the CD, and if your vehicle has these features,
DVD, front auxiliary, and rear auxiliary.
BAND:Press this button to switch between FM1, FM2,
AM, or XM1 or XM2 (if equipped).

this button to select the next CD, if multiple CDs are
loaded. This function is inactive if the front seat
passengers are listening to a CD.
©¨(Seek):While listening to the radio, press the
seek arrows to go to the next or the previous station and
stay there. This function is inactive if the front seat
passengers are listening to the radio.
While a CD is playing, press the left seek arrow to go to
the start of the current track if more than eight seconds
have played. Press the right seek arrow to go to the
next track on the CD. This function is inactive if the front
seat passengers are listening to a CD.
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.
