available. See “Headphones” earlier
in this section for more information.
The DVD player is capable of
outputting audio to the wired
headphone jacks on the RSA
system, if the vehicle has this
feature. The DVD player can be
selected as an audio source on the
RSA system. See Rear Seat Audio
(RSA) System on page 7‑40 for
more information. When a device is connected to the
A/V jacks, or the radio's auxiliary
input jacks (front auxiliary jack or
the USB port), the rear seat
passengers are able to hear audio
from the auxiliary device through the
wireless or wired headphones as
long as the rear seat audio is turned
on. The front seat passengers are
able to listen to playback from this
device through the vehicle speakers
by selecting AUX as the source on
the radio.

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.
