events will cause the screen(s) to automatically switch
to DVD mode. These events are:
• Loading a disc in the DVD player (if so equipped),
• Pressing the PLAY button on the DVD player face-
plate when the disc is stopped or paused, or
• AM/FM band selection via Radio.
If your vehicle is not equipped with the separate DVD

Auxiliary Inputs
For each video screen there is an auxiliary (Aux jack)
device input which is used to connect external audio/
video sources to the VES™. Examples of devices that
can be connected to the Aux inputs include portable
music players, video cameras, VCR’s, game systems,
and other devices with audio and/or video outputs.
The Aux jacks are typically located on the back of the
center console or on one of the vehicles side panels in
the rear occupant area.

matic transmission cannot be started this way.
Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic con-
verter and once the engine has started, ignite and
damage the converter and vehicle. If the vehicle
