Rear Seat Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system
works with the vehicle’s audio system and includes
a radio that accepts CD audio or DVD video,
a video display screen, two sets of wireless
headphones, and a remote control.
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.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the
RSE system might not work until the temperature
is within the operating range. The operating
range for the RSE system is above−4°F (−20°C)
or below 140°F (60°C). If the temperature of
your vehicle is outside of this range, heat or cool
the vehicle until the temperature is within the
operating range of the RSE system.
Headphones
The RSE includes two sets of wireless
headphones that are only dedicated to this
system. These headphones are used to listen to
the radio with CD and DVD or an auxiliary
device connected to the RCA jacks. 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 comes
on. If the light does not come on, the batteries
might need to be replaced. See “Battery
Replacement” later in this section for more
information. Switch the headphones to OFF when
not in use.

Stereo RCA Jacks
The RCA jacks are located behind the video
screen on the overhead console. The RCA jacks
allow audio or video signals to be connected
from an auxiliary device such as a camcorder or a
video game unit to the RSE. Adapter connectors
or cables might be required to connect the
auxiliary device to the RCA jacks. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for proper usage.The RCA jacks are color coded to match typical
home entertainment system equipment. The yellow
jack (right) is for the video input. The white jack
(middle) is for the left audio input. The red
jack (left) is for the right audio input. The red
connector must always be used in order for the
DVD system to recognize that an external source
is plugged in. With the radio on, the screen
automatically switches to the rear auxiliary input
when the red connector cable is inserted.
Power for auxiliary devices is not supplied by the
radio system.
To use the auxiliary function, connect a camcorder
or a video game unit to the RCA jacks and turn
on the auxiliary device. To view a DVD, insert the
DVD into the CD/DVD loading slot on the radio.
The system automatically switches to DVD
and starts to play. To switch between the auxiliary
device and the DVD, press the DVD/AUX button
on the radio faceplate or the SRCE (source) button
on the remote control. See “DVD Player” and
“Remote Control” later in this section for more
information.
