the vehicle. Press this button while a DVD or CD
is playing to freeze the video and mute the
audio. The video screen will display Parental
Control On and the power indicator light on the

Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers
only. The driver cannot safely view the video
screen while driving and should not try to do so.The DVD system is designed to be inoperable when
the vehicle is exposed to extremely low or high
temperatures, in order to protect the system from
damage. Operate the DVD system under normal or
comfortable cabin temperature ranges.
Headphones
The RSE system includes two sets of wireless
headphones.
The wireless headphones have an ON/OFF switch
and a volume control. To use the headphones,
turn the switch to ON. An indicator light on
the headphones will illuminate. If the light does not
illuminate, the batteries may need to be replaced.
See “Battery Replacement” later in this section
for more information. Switch the headphones
to OFF when not in use.
The transmitters are located below the overhead
RSE control panel. The headphones will shut
off automatically to save the battery power if the
DVD system is shut off, or if the headphones
are out of range of the transmitters for more than
three minutes. If you move too far forward or
step out of the vehicle, the headphones will lose
the audio signal.

Notice:Do not store the headphones in heat
or direct sunlight. This could damage the
headphones and repairs will not be covered by
your warranty. Keep the headphones stored

DVD play, there may be a low hissing noise
through the speakers and/or headphones. If the
hissing sound in the wireless headphones
seems excessive, make sure that the headphone
batteries are fully charged. Some amount of
hissing is normal.
Both sets of rear seat headphones may include
foam ear pads that can be replaced.
Foam ear pads on these headphones may
become worn or damaged. The headphone foam
ear pads can become damaged if they are not
handled or stored properly. If the foam ear pads do
become damaged or worn out, the pads can be
replaced separately from the headphone set.

headphone set.
The headphone replacement foam ear pads can
be ordered in pairs. See your dealer for more
