Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
System
The vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) system. The RSE system works with the vehicle’s
audio system. The DVD player is part of the front radio.
The RSE system includes a radio with a DVD player, a
video display screen, audio/video jacks, two wireless
headphones, and a remote control. SeeRadio(s) on
page 3-87for more information on the vehicle’s audio/
DVD system.
Before Driving
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers only.
The driver cannot safely view the video screen
while driving and should not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the RSE system
might not work until the temperature is within the
operating range. The operating range for the RSE system
is above−4°F (−20°C) or below 140°F (60°C). If the
temperature of the vehicle is outside of this range, heat
or cool the vehicle until the temperature is within the
operating range of the RSE system.
Parental Control
The RSE system may have a Parental Control feature,
depending on which radio the vehicle has. To start

affect the function of the remote control.
If a CD or DVD is in the Radio DVD slot, the remote
control
O(power) button can be used to turn on the video
screen display and start the disc. The radio can also turn
