7-38 Infotainment System
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 supplied)
might 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 radio can listen
to the audio of the connected
auxiliary device by sourcing to
auxiliary. See

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 7‑44for
more information.
When a device is connected to the
A/V jacks, or the radio's auxiliary
input jack, if the vehicle has this
feature, the rear seat passengers
are able to hear audio from the
auxiliary device through the wireless
or wired headphones. The front seat
passengers are able to listen to

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
System
For vehicles with Rear Seat Audio

listen to and control any of the
music sources: radio, CDs, DVDs,
or other auxiliary sources. The rear
seat passengers can only control
the music sources the front seat
passengers are not listening to
(except on some radios where dual
control is allowed). For example,
rear seat passengers can control a
CD and listen to it through the
headphones, 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 RSA functions operate even
when the main radio is off. The front
audio system displays
Xwhen the
RSA is on, and disappears from the
display when it is off. Audio can be heard through wired
headphones (not included) plugged
into the jacks on the RSA. If the
vehicle has this feature, audio can
also be heard on Channel 2 of the
wireless headphones.
The audio system mutes the rear
speakers when the RSA audio is
active through the headphones.
To listen to an iPod or portable
audio device through the RSA,
attach the iPod or portable audio
device to the front auxiliary input
(if available), located on the front
audio system. Turn the iPod on,
