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 listen to and control 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
band on the other system.RSA functions can be operated
even when the main radio is off.
Audio can be heard through wired
headphones (not included) plugged
into the jacks on the RSA. If the
vehicle has this feature, audio can
also be heard on Channel 2 of the
wireless headphones.
The 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.
Turn the iPod on, then choose the
auxiliary input with the RSA SRCE
button. An iPod
®or portable audio
device can 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 7‑94. This system may not be available or
interferences may occur if any of the
following are true:.Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks,
or a tunnel.
.Objects are located on the front
dash of the vehicle.
.Satellites are being repaired or
improved.
.After-market glass tinting has
been applied to the vehicle's
windshield.
Notice: Do not apply after-market
glass tinting to the vehicle's
windows. Glass tinting interferes
with the system's ability to
receive GPS signals and causes
the system to malfunction.
The window might have to be
replaced to correct the problem.
This would not be covered by the
warranty.
