Pressing the REAR CTRL OFF
button disables rear control. The
indicator in the button comes on and
your passengers can no longer
operate the system with the rear
control panel. When the button is
pressed, the‘‘CTRL OFF’’message
appears in the overhead screen to let
your passengers know that the
control panel is disabled.
The rear system selects the source it
was last set to. If that source has
been removed (the DVD has been
ejected from the player, for example),
you will see‘‘No Disc’’in the display.
You should select another source or
insert a DVD.Rear Speakers
When you turn on the system, the
rear speakers are automatically
turned off if the rear system selects a
different entertainment source than
the front system. You will see the
Rear Speakers Off icon both in the
audio display and the overhead
screen. The sound for the rear
system is sent to the wireless
headphones.If you want to turn the rear speakers
on again, press and hold the REAR
PWR button until the Rear Speakers
Off icon goes off.
NOTE:The rear speakers are
connected to the front system, so
they will always play the source that
the front system is set to.

Wireless HeadphonesSome state and local government
agencies prohibit the use of
headphones by the driver of a motor
vehicle. Always obey applicable laws
and regulations.
The audio for the rear entertainment
system is sent to the wireless
headphones that come with the
system. When using the
headphones, make sure you wear
them correctly: L (left) and R (right)
are marked on the sides of the frame.
Wearing the headphones backwards
may affect audio reception, limiting
the sound quality and range.To use the headphones, pivot the
earpieces outward. This turns them
on. To adjust the volume, turn the
dial on the bottom of the right
earpiece. When you remove the
headphones, the earpieces
automatically pivot inward, and the
headphones turn off. When not in
use, store the headphones in the
pocket of either front seat.
