Stereo RCA Jacks
The RCA jacks are located behind the video screen on
the front of the DVD console. The RCA jacks allow you to
connect audio and video from an auxiliary device such as
a camcorder or a video game unit
to your RSE system
just as you would
to a standard television. Standard RCA
cables are needed
to connect the auxiliary device to the
RCA jacks. The yellow connector inputs video and the
red and white connectors input right and left stereo audio.
Refer
to the manufacturer’s instructions for proper
connection of your auxiliary device.
To use the auxiliary inputs on the RSE system, connect
an external auxiliary device
to the color-coded RCA
jacks and turn both the auxiliary device and the
RSE system power on.
If the RSE system had been
previously in the DVD player mode, you will need
to press the SRCE button on the faceplate or the remote
control
to change to the auxiliary mode. Pressing the
SRCE button will toggle the
RSE system between
the auxiliary device and the DVD player.

3-86

Understanding Radio Reception
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise
if you ever get it.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals
will reach only about
10 to 40 miles (1 6 to 65 km).
Tall buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals,
causing the sound
to come and go.
XMTM Satellite Radio Service
XMTM Satellite Radio gives you digital radio reception
from coast to coast. Just as with FM, tall buildings
or hills can interfere with Satellite radio signals, causing
the sound to come and go. Your radio may display
NO SIGNAL to indicate interference.
Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause
reduced sound quality, ruined cassettes or a damaged
mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored in their
cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and
extreme heat. If they aren’t, they may not operate
properly or may cause failure of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned regularly after every
50 hours of use. Your radio may display
CLN to
indicate that you have used your tape player for
50 hours without resetting the tape clean timer.
If this
message appears on the display, your cassette
tape player needs to be cleaned. It
will still play tapes,
but you should clean it as soon as possible to
prevent damage
to your tapes and player. If you notice
a reduction in sound quality, try a known good
cassette
to see if the tape or the tape player is at fault.
If this other cassette has no improvement
in sound
quality, clean the tape player.
