your mind on the drive — avoid engaging
in extended searching while driving.
Keeping your mind on the drive is important for
safe driving. Here are some ways in which you can
help avoid distraction while driving.

audio (RSA) system, if it has this feature, it will
allow rear seat passengers to listen to and control
any of the following audio sources: AM/FM
tuner, front CD player, and XM™ Satellite Radio
Service (if equipped). However, the rear seat
passengers can only control the sources that the
front seat passengers are not listening to. For
example, rear seat passengers may listen to a CD
in the front radio and control it 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 front seat audio controls always have
priority over the RSA controls. If the front seat
passengers switch the source for the main radio to
a remote source, the RSA will not be able to
control the remote source. You can operate the
RSA when the main radio is off.The DVD or auxiliary device will always be
available on channel (CHA or CH1) of the wireless
headphones. All other RSA sources are available

or auxiliary device audio. The rear seat
passengers will not be able to listen to XM, on
CHB or CH2, if the front passenger is listening to
a DVD or auxiliary device.
The remote control will not operate any of the
RSA features.
