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.

system, the RSE system may
have a Global Off feature. The
Global Off feature disables all RSE
system features. Press and hold

to the A/V jacks. The headphones
are used to listen to various
multi‐media. The wireless
headphones have an On/Off button,
channel 1/2 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

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 is 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 optimal audio performance, the
headphones must be worn correctly.
Headphones should be worn with
the headband over the top of the
head for best audio reception. The
symbol L (Left) appears on the
outside bottom edge of the ear cup
and should be positioned on the left
ear. The symbol R (Right) appears
on the outside bottom edge of the
ear cup and should be positioned on
the right ear.
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,

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.
