the vehicle's speakers, the RSE button
(located in the front radio control) must
be selected. Regardless of whether RSE
audio is selected for the vehicle speakers
or not, when the RSE audio is playing it
can be heard in the headphones.
Volume Control
You can adjust the volume of the audio
heard in the vehicle speakers from the
RSE control panel or the remote control.
From the RSE control panel, rotate the
POWER/VOLUMEknob. From the

affect the wireless headphone volume. To
adjust the headphones, turn the VOL
control wheel on the headphones.
Headphones
Your RSE comes with two (2) sets of
wireless headphones and four (4) AAA
1.5V batteries. To install the batteries,
press the button below the battery com-
partment on the right side of each set of
headphones and insert each of the bat-
teries, observing the correct polarity as
shown in the headphone battery com-
partment. Each set of headphones
requires two batteries.
To turn the headphones on, push the
POWER button on the left side of the
headphones. Push the button again to

ume by turning the Volume control. The
headphones can be adjusted for size,
and can be stored more compactly by

✽ ✽ NOTICE
• Conserve the energy of your batteries
by turning the headphones off when
they are not in use. Headphone bat-
teries will typically work for 48 hours,
depending on the volume setting.
• The headphone has an automatic shutoff feature to extend battery life.
The headphones will automatically
turn off after 20 seconds if they don't
detect a signal from the RSE.
• In case of poor headphone reception performance, please check the battery
condition.
The headphones perform best when
used within 2 - 8 feet (0.6-2 m) of the
RSE LCD display. Getting too close or
too far away will cause poor reception.

Connecting Other Devices to the
RSE
Electronic devices such as video game
systems or VHS players can be played
through the RSE. These external devices
can be connected to the unit via RCA
plugs available in the vehicle.
Press the SOURCE button on the remote
control, or the SRC button on the RSE
control panel, to select and switch to the
external device inputs.
Once the RSE has switched to the exter-
nal device audio and/or video sources,
you can operate the device using its con-
trols. The RSE controls will not control
external devices. For example, to control or play a video
game after the RSE has recognized it as
the source, you must use the game con-
trols, not the RSE controls.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• To prevent noise, devices connected to
the AUX port should have the volume
adjusted high.
• If an external power connector is con- nected to the vehicle, static noise may
occur. If noise is heard, verify the
AUX device volume is turned up, then
test the sound with the power cable
disconnected. If necessary, use the
AUX device powered from its internal
battery, or purchase a ground loop
isolator to connect the AUX device to
the vehicle.
