Infotainment System 7-41
The RSE includes two 2-channel
wireless headphones that are
dedicated to this system. Channel 1
is dedicated to the video screen,
while Channel 2 is dedicated to
RSA selections. These headphones
are used to listen to media such
as CDs, DVDs, MP3/WMAs,
DVD-As, radio, any auxiliary
source connected to A/V jacks,
or the auxiliary input jack, if the
vehicle has this feature. The
wireless headphones have an
On/Off button, channel 1 or 2
switch, and a volume control.
Switch the headphones to Off
when not in use.
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. Intermittent sound or
static on the headphones can also
be an indication of weak batteries.
See“Battery Replacement” later in
this section for more information. To adjust the volume on the
headphones, use the volume
control located on the right side.
Infrared transmitters are located
at the rear of the RSE overhead
console. The headphones shut off
automatically to save the battery
power if the RSE system and RSA
are shut off or if the headphones are
out of range of the transmitters for
more than three minutes. Moving
too far forward or stepping out of the
vehicle, can cause the headphones
to lose the audio signal.
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 outside bottom edge of the ear
cup and should be positioned on
the left ear. The symbol R (Right)
appears on the outside bottom
edge of the ear cup 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.
To purchase replacement ear pads,
call 1‐888‐293‐3332, then prompt
zero (0), or contact your dealer.
Headphones should be stored in
the front floor console and not in the
front seat back pocket. Headphone
damage can occur when the second
row seats are folded forward.
