Infotainment System 7-19
Radio Reception
Frequency interference and static
can occur during normal radio
reception if items such as cell phone
chargers, vehicle convenience
accessories, and external electronic
devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is
interference or static, unplug the
item from the accessory power
outlet.
FM
FM signals only reach about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 miles). Although the
radio has a built-in electronic circuit
that automatically works to reduce
interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in
and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. Static can occur when
things like storms and power lines
interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble
on the radio.
XM™Satellite Radio Service
XM Satellite Radio Service gives
digital radio reception from coast
to coast in the 48 contiguous
United States, and in Canada.
Just as with FM, tall buildings or
hills can interfere with satellite radio
signals, causing the sound to fade
in and out. In addition, traveling
or standing under heavy foliage,
bridges, garages, or tunnels may
cause loss of the XM signal for a
period of time.
Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage can cause
interference with the vehicle's radio.
Multi-Band Antenna
The multi-band antenna is on the
roof of the vehicle. The antenna
is used for the AM/FM radio,
OnStar, the XM Satellite Radio
Service System, and GPS (Global
Positioning System), if the vehicle
has these features. Keep the
antenna clear of obstructions
for clear reception.

Connecting a Bluetooth®
Device
Before a Bluetooth device can

system. Not all Bluetooth devices
can be paired to the infotainment
system. Before pairing the Bluetooth
device, become familiar with its
user guide for Bluetooth functions.
The system only connects to
Bluetooth devices that support
A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile) version 1.2. A Bluetooth phone with MP3
capability can not be paired to the
vehicle as a phone and an MP3
player at the same time.
Pairing Information:
.Up to five devices can be paired
to the system.
.The pairing process is disabled
when the vehicle is moving.
.The infotainment system
automatically links with the first
available paired device in the
order the device was paired.
.Only one paired device can be
connected to the infotainment
system at a time.
.Pairing should only need to be
completed once, unless changes
to the pairing information have
been made or the device is
deleted.

Rear Seat
Infotainment
Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) System
The vehicle may have a DVD Rear
Seat Entertainment (RSE) system.
The RSE system works with the
vehicle's infotainment system. The
DVD player is part of the front radio.
The RSE system includes a radio
with a DVD player, two rear seat
video display screens, audio/video
jacks, two wireless headphones,
and a remote control. See CD/DVD
Player on page 7‑22 or the separate
navigation system manual for more
information on the vehicle's DVD
system.
Before Driving
The RSE is for rear seat
passengers only. The driver cannot
safely view the video screen while
driving.
In severe or extreme weather
conditions the RSE system may not
work until the temperature is within
the operating range. The operating
range is above −20°C (−4°F)
and below 60°C (140°F). If the
temperature is outside of this range,
heat or cool the vehicle until it is
within the operating range.

7-40 Infotainment System
RSE includes two 2-channel
wireless headphones. Channel 1
is dedicated to the DVD player,
and Channel 2 is dedicated to
RSA selections. The headphones
are used to listen to various
multi‐media. If the vehicle is not
equipped with RSA, then channel 2
is dedicated to any external auxiliary
device connected to the rear A/V
jacks. The wireless headphones
have an On/Off button, channel 1
or 2 switch, and a volume control.
Turn the headphones off when not
in use.
Push the On/Off button to turn
on the headphones. A light on
the headphones comes on. If the
light does not come on, check the
batteries. Intermittent sound or static
can also indicate weak batteries.
See“Battery Replacement” later in
this section for more information. Infrared transmitters are on the
top of the left seatback video
screen. The headphones shut off
automatically to save the battery
power if the RSE system and RSA
are shut off or if the headphones are
out of range of the transmitters for
more than three minutes. Moving too
far forward or stepping out of the
vehicle can cause the headphones
to lose the signal or have static.
To adjust the volume on the
headphones, use the volume
control.
For best audio performance, the
headphones must be worn correctly,
with the headband over the top of
the head. L (Left) and R (Right)
are above the ear pads and
are indicators as to how the
headphones should be placed
on the head.
Notice:
Do not store the
headphones in heat or direct
sunlight. This could damage
the headphones and repairs will
not be covered by the warranty.
Storage in extreme cold can
weaken the batteries. Keep the
headphones stored in a cool,
dry place.
If the foam ear pads attached to
the headphones become worn or
damaged, the pads can be replaced
separately from the headphone set.
To purchase replacement ear pads,
call 1‐888‐293‐3332, then prompt
zero (0), or contact your dealer.

Infotainment System 7-43
Push the video screen down into its
locked position when it is not in use.
The screen turns off automatically.
Only the left RSE seatback console
contains the infrared transmitters
for the wireless headphones. They
may be visible as eight illuminated
LEDs. These LEDs are not on the
right video screen. Both seatback
consoles contain an infrared
receiver for the remote control.
They are located at the top of
each console.
Notice:Avoid directly touching
the video screen, as damage may
occur. See “Cleaning the Video
Screen” later in this section for
more information.Video Screen Input Jack
Each video screen is equipped
with a video input jack to allow
video cables to be connected
from an auxiliary device such as a
camcorder or a video game system.
This signal will override any video
provided by the RSE system; either
the DVD or Auxiliary A/V jack
source. The RSE system must
be on for this input to operate.
Remote Control
To use the remote control, aim it
at the transmitter window at either
seatback console and press the
button. Direct sunlight or very bright
light could affect the ability of the
RSE transmitter to receive signals
from the remote control. Check
the batteries if the remote control
does not seem to be working.
