AUX GMC SIERRA 2006 User Guide

Stereo RCA Jacks
The RCA jacks are located behind the video screen. The
RCA jacks allow audio and video signals to be connected
from an auxiliary device such as a camcorder or a video
game unit to the RSE system. Standard RCA cables, not
included, are needed to connect the auxiliary device to
the RCA jacks. The yellow connector inputs video and the
red and white connectors input right and left audio. Refer
to the manufacturer’s instructions for proper connection
of the auxiliary device.
To use the auxiliary inputs on the RSE system, connect
an external auxiliary device to the color-coded RCA jacks
and turn both the auxiliary device and the RSE system
power on. If the RSE system had been previously in the
DVD player mode, pressing the SRCE button on the
faceplate or the remote control will switch the RSE
system between the auxiliary device and the DVD player.
How to Change the Video Format when in
the Auxiliary Mode
The auxiliary input video format is preset to NTSC. In
some countries, the video format may be in the PAL
system. To change the video format, perform the
following:
1. Press the display menu button.
2. Press the down arrow button to highlight the Video
Format option.
3. Press the enter button to select Video Format.
4. Press the right or left arrow button to select
the desired video format.
5. Press the enter button to accept the change.

selected as an audio source on the radio, adjust the
speaker volume on the radio, if necessary. If the RSE
system power is not on, the RSE system will not be
an available source on the radio. Refer to the radio
information for the radio that your vehicle has for more
information.

Q:What is total vehicle reserve capacity?
A:This is the difference between your GVWR and the
weight of your truck with full fuel and passengers.
It is the amount of weight you can add to your vehicle
before reaching your GVWR. Keep in mind that
reserve capacity numbers are intended as a guide
when selecting the amount of equipment or cargo
your truck can carry. If you are unsure of your
vehicle’s front, rear, or total weight, go to a weigh
station and weigh your vehicle. Your dealer can also
help you with this.
The total vehicle reserve capacity for your vehicle
can be found in the lower right corner of the
Certication/Tire label as shown previously.
See your dealer for additional advice and information
about using a snow plow on your vehicle. Also, see
Loading Your Vehicle on page 4-48.
Emergency Roof Lamp Provisions
Vehicles with the RPO VYU snow plow prep package
also have an emergency roof lamp provision package,
RPO TRW. Wiring for the emergency roof lamp is
provided in the B-pillar as shown. SeeAuxiliary Roof
Mounted Lamp on page 3-18for switch location.

B. Emergency Roof Lamp Harness

Auxiliary Battery
The auxiliary battery provision can be used to supply
electrical power to additional equipment that you
may choose to add, such as a slide-in camper.
If your vehicle has this
provision, this relay will be
located on the passenger’s
side of the vehicle, next
to the auxiliary battery.
When using this provision, connection should only be
made to the upper stud (A) of the relay. Do not make
connections to the lower stud (B) of the relay.
The auxiliary battery circuit is protected by a megafuse
located behind the auxiliary battery.
Be sure to follow the proper installation instructions that
are included with any electrical equipment that you install.Notice:Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain the battery. Always turn
off electrical equipment when not in use and do not
use equipment that exceeds the maximum amperage
rating for the auxiliary battery provision.
Power Winches
If you wish to use a power winch on your vehicle, only
use it when your vehicle is stationary or anchored.
Trailer Recommendations
You must subtract your hitch loads from the CWR for your
vehicle. Weigh your vehicle with the trailer attached, so
that you won’t go over the GVWR or GAWR. If you are
using a weight-distributing hitch, weigh the vehicle
without the spring bars in place.
You’ll get the best performance if you spread out the
weight of your load the right way, and if you choose
the correct hitch and trailer brakes.
For more information, seeTowing a Trailer on
page 4-67.
