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, CD, DVD, or other
auxiliary sources. The rear seat
passengers can control the same
music sources the front seat
passengers are listening to (dual
control) or a different source. For
example, rear seat passengers can
control and listen to a CD through
the headphones, while the driver
listens to the radio through the
speakers. The rear seat passengers
have control of the volume for each
set of headphones.
The radio functionality is controlled
by both the RSA and the front radio.
Only one band can be tuned to at
one time. Changing the band on the
RSA or the front radio will change
the band on the other system,
if they are both sourced to the radio.The RSA functions can be used
even when the main radio is off.
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.
The front audio system allows the
rear speakers to continue playing
even when the RSA audio is active
through the headphones.
To listen to an iPod or portable
audio device through the RSA,
attach the iPod or portable audio
device to the auxiliary input (if
available), located below the RSA
system, USB port, or AUX jack.
Turn the iPod on, then choose the
front auxiliary input with the RSA
SRCE button. The iPod or portable
audio device can also be connected
to the front auxiliary jack or the
USB port.

Global Positioning
System (GPS)
The navigation system determines
the position of the vehicle by using
satellite signals, various vehicle
signals, and map data.
At times, other interferences such
as the satellite condition, road
configuration, the condition of the
vehicle and/or other circumstances
can interfere with the navigation
system's ability to determine the
accurate position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position
of the vehicle using signals sent by
the GPS Satellites of the United
States Department of Defense.
When the vehicle is not receiving
signals from the satellites, a symbol
appears on the map screen. Refer
to Global Positioning System (GPS)
on page 7‑76.
