Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
System
Vehicles with this feature allow
the rear seat passengers to listen
to and control any of the music
sources: radio, CDs, DVDs, or other
auxiliary sources. RSA can only
control music sources that the front
seat passengers are not listening to,
except on radios where dual control
is allowed.
RSA can function when the front
radio is off.
Xdisplays on the
infotainment system when RSA
is on.
Audio can be heard through
wired headphones (not included)
plugged into the jacks on the RSA.
If the vehicle has a Rear Seat
Entertainment system with wireless
headphones, audio can also be
heard on Channel 2 of the wireless
headphones.
To listen to a portable audio
device through the RSA, attach
the portable audio device to either
the front or rear auxiliary input,
if available. Turn the device on,
then choose the front auxiliary input
with the RSA SRCE button.

7-52 Infotainment System
Voice Recognition
The voice recognition system uses
commands to control the system
and dial phone numbers.
Noise:The system may not
recognize voice commands if there
is too much background noise.
When to Speak: A tone sounds to
indicate that the system is ready for
a voice command. Wait for the tone
and then speak.
How to Speak: Speak clearly in a
calm and natural voice.
Audio System
When using the Bluetooth system,
sound comes through the vehicle's
front audio system speakers
and overrides the audio system. Use the VOL/
Oknob during a
call to change the volume level.
The adjusted volume level
remains in memory for later
calls. The system maintains a
minimum volume level.
