audio GMC SIERRA 1500 2009 Service Manual

DVD Distortion
Video distortion can occur when operating cellular
phones, scanners, CB radios, Global Position Systems
(GPS)*, two-way radios, mobile fax, or walkie talkies.
It might be necessary to turn off the DVD player when
operating one of these devices in or near the vehicle.
*Excludes the OnStar
®System.
Cleaning the RSE Overhead Console
When cleaning the RSE overhead console surface, use
only a clean cloth dampened with clean water.
Cleaning the Video Screen
When cleaning the video screen, use only a clean cloth
dampened with clean water. Use care when directly
touching or cleaning the screen, as damage could result.
Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
Vehicles with this feature allow the rear seat passengers
to listen to and control any of the music sources: radio,
CDs, DVDs, or other auxiliary sources. However, the rear
seat passengers can only control the music sources the
front seat passengers are not listening to (except on
some radios where dual control is allowed). For example,
rear seat passengers can control and listen to a CD
through the headphones, while the driver listens to
the radio through the front speakers. The rear seat
passengers have control of the volume for each set of
headphones.
The RSA functions can be used even while the main
radio is off. The front audio system will display the
headphone icon when the RSA is on, and will disappear
from the display when it 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.
Depending on the audio system, the rear speakers may
continue to play when the RSA audio is active through
the headphones.
