Headphones OperationThe headphones receive two separate chan-
nels of audio using an infrared transmitter from
the video screen.
Front seat occupants receive some headphone
audio coverage to allow them to adjust the
headphone volume for the young rear seat
occupants that may not be able to do so for
themselves.
If no audio is heard after increasing the volume
control, verify that the screen is turned on and in
the down position and that the channel is not
muted and the headphone channel selector
switch is on the desired channel. If audio is still
not heard, check that fully charged batteries are
installed in the headphones.
ControlsThe headphone power indicator and controls
are located on the right ear cup.
NOTE:
The rear video system must be turned on
before sound can be heard from the head-
phones. To conserve battery life, the head-
phones will automatically turn off approxi-
mately three minutes after the rear video
system is turned off.Changing the Audio Mode for Headphones

referred to as Channel 1 and the right side of the
screen is referred to as Channel 2.
Only Channel 1 displays video images. When in

ond rear seat screen.

is displayed on the first rear seat screen as a full
screen image. A popup banner at the bottom of
the screen is displayed momentarily over the
