dry place.Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks
The A/V jacks, located on the rear
of the floor console, allow audio
or video signals to be connected
from an auxiliary device such as
a camcorder or a video game
unit to the RSE system. Adapter
connectors or cables (not included)
may be required to connect the
auxiliary device to the A/V jacks.
Refer to the manufacturer ’s
instructions for proper usage. The A/V jacks are color coded to
match typical home entertainment
system equipment. The yellow
jack (A) is for the video input. The
white jack (B) is for the left audio
input. The red jack (C) is for the
right audio input.
Power for auxiliary devices is not
supplied by the radio system.
To use the auxiliary inputs of the
RSE system, connect an external
auxiliary device to the color-coded
A/V jacks and turn both the auxiliary
device and the video screen power
on. If the video screen is in the DVD
player mode, pressing the AUX
(auxiliary) button on the remote
control switches the video screen
from the DVD player mode to the
auxiliary device. The audio of the

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
System
Vehicles with this feature allow the
rear seat passengers to listen to
and control any of the music
sources: radio, CD, DVD, or other
auxiliary sources. The rear seat
passengers can control the same
music sources the front seat
passengers are listening to
(dual control) or a different source.
For example, rear seat passengers
can control and listen to a CD
through the headphones, while the
driver listens to the radio through
the speakers. The rear seat
passengers have control of the
volume for each set of headphones.The radio functionality is controlled
by both the RSA and the front radio.
Only one band can be tuned to at
one time. Changing the band on the
RSA or the front radio will change
the band on the other system,
if they are both sourced to the radio.
The RSA functions can be used
even when the main radio is off.
Audio can be heard through wired
headphones (not included) plugged
into the jacks on the RSA. If your
vehicle has this feature, audio can
also be heard on Channel 2 of the
wireless headphones.
The front audio system allows the
rear speakers to continue playing
even when the RSA audio is active
through the headphones.

Global Positioning
System (GPS)
The navigation system determines
the position of the vehicle by using
satellite signals, various vehicle
signals, and map data.
At times, other interferences such
as the satellite condition, road
configuration, the condition of the
vehicle and/or other circumstances
can interfere with the navigation
system's ability to determine the
accurate position of the vehicle.
Page 267 of 508

Black plate (77,1)Cadillac Escalade EXT Owner Manual - 2011
Infotainment System 7-77
The GPS shows the current position
of the vehicle using signals sent by
the GPS Satellites of the United
States Department of Defense.
When the vehicle is not receiving
signals from the satellites, a symbol
appears on the map screen. Refer
toGlobal Positioning System (GPS)
on page 7‑76.
This system may not be available or
interferences may occur if any of the
following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks,
or a tunnel.
.Objects are located on the front
dash of the vehicle.
.Satellites are being repaired or
improved.
.After-market glass tinting has
been applied to the vehicle's
windshield. Notice:
Do not apply after-market
glass tinting to the vehicle's
windows. Glass tinting interferes
with the system's ability to
receive GPS signals and causes
the system to malfunction.
The window might have to be
replaced to correct the problem.
This would not be covered by the
warranty.
For more information if the GPS is
not functioning properly, see Vehicle
Positioning on page 7‑77 and
Problems with Route Guidance on
page 7‑78.
Vehicle Positioning
At times, the position of the vehicle
on the map may be inaccurate due
to one or more of the following
reasons:
.Road system has changed.
.Vehicle is driving on slippery
road surfaces such as in sand,
gravel, and/or snow.
.Vehicle is traveling on winding
roads.
.Vehicle is on a long
straight road.
.Vehicle is approaching a tall
building or a large vehicle.
.Surface streets run parallel to a
freeway.
.Vehicle has just been transferred
by a vehicle carrier or a ferry.
.Current position calibration is set
incorrectly.
.Vehicle is traveling at high
speed.
.Vehicle changes directions more
than once, or when the vehicle is
turning on a turn table in a
parking lot.
.Vehicle is entering and/or exiting
a parking lot or a garage.
.GPS signal is not received.
.Roof carrier is installed on the
vehicle.
