Auxiliary input jack
By connecting a commercial audio pro-
duct to the vehicle, such as a portable
audio player, you can hear its sound via
the vehicle ’s speaker.
An auxiliary (AUX) input jack is equipped
in the lower compartment of the center
console. A stereo mini pin plug (3.5ø) can
be inserted in this jack. The connection
cable is available at electrical appliance or
similar stores.
To use the AUX input jack :
1. Connect a portable audio player to the
AUX input jack.
2. Press the “RSE AUX ”button on the
audio control panel to turn on the auxiliary
audio input. 3. Play back the portable audio player.
Refer to the Owner
’s Manual for the
portable audio player.
NOTE . The output sound of the portable
audio player is not loud, and the sound
via the vehicle ’s speakers that are
connected to the vehicle audio set
may be very low. If you turn up the
volume of the audio set, the volume
becomes louder. However, when you
change from one portable audio player
to another one, the volume levels via
the vehicle ’s speakers may be signifi-
cantly louder compared to the prior
device. To avoid a large volume differ-
ence, turn down the volume when you
change between portable audioplayers.. In some cases, when the sound
volume of the portable audio player is
low, the sound becomes bad when you
turn up the volume of the vehicle audio
system. In this case, adjust the sound
volume of the portable audio player.. In some cases, noise occurs be-
cause of a bad connection between the
portable player and the vehicle audio
system. Try cleaning the stereo jack
and audio plug.. If noise is not reduced, check for disconnection of the cord or malfunc-
tions of the portable player.

Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) system operation (ifequipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with the Rear
Seat Entertainment (RSE) system, you
can listen to the audio via the vehicle
speakers. Push the“RSE AUX ”button to
play a DVD using the Rear Seat Entertain-
ment system.

the Owner ’s Manual supplement for the
Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) system.
NOTE . To watch a DVD in the front seats
using the monitor of the navigation
system, park the vehicle in a safe
location and apply the parking brake.
Images of the DVD will not be displayed
on the front monitor unless the parking
brake is applied.. The harman/kardon
®audio system
is a stereo system with 2 channels. If a
harman/kardon
®audio system is
equipped, the Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) system may not generate a
satisfying realistic sound when playing
5.1 channel audio sources. Precautions to observe when
handling a compact disc
Use only compact discs (CDs, CD-Rs and
CD-RWs) that have the mark shown in the
following illustration. Also, some compact
discs cannot be played.
