Shared ModesThe VES™ and radio are capable of communi-
cating with each other. This allows the VES™ to
output radio audio to the headphones and the
radio to output VES™ audio to the vehicle
speakers. When the radio and VES™ are in the
same (shared) mode, a VES™ icon will be
visible on the radio’s display and the shared
icon will be visible on the VES™ screen. When
in shared mode, the same audio source is
heard in the headphones and vehicle speakers
simultaneously.
If the radio functions (FM, AM, or SAT) are in the
shared mode with the VES™, only the radio is
able to control the radio functions. In this case,
VES™ can share the radio mode, but not
change stations until the radio mode is changed
to a mode that is different from the VES™
selected radio mode. When shared, the radio
has priority over the VES™ or all radio modes(FM, AM, and SAT). The VES™ has the ability
to switch tuner (AM/FM/MW/LW), SEEK, TUNE,
and recall presets in radio modes as long as it is
not in shared mode.
When in shared disc or satellite video mode
both the radio and the VES™ have control of
the video functions. The VES™ has the ability to
control the following video modes:
1. CD: Ability to Fast Forward, Rewind, and
Track Up/Down.
2. CD Changer (in radio): Ability to Disk Up/
Down and program all listed CD controls (Fast
Forward, Rewind, and Track Up/Down).
The VES™ can even control radio modes or video
modes while the radio is turned off. The VES™
can access the radio modes or disc modes by
navigating to those modes on the VES™ and
activating a radio mode or disc mode.
Information Mode Display
When information mode is active, the current
mode setting for both audio channels is dis-
played. In addition to the items called out by
number, the remaining information displays the
current status of the source (such as station
frequency, name, preset or track number, song
title, artist name, album name, etc.).
1. Channel 1 Mode – Displays the current
source for Channel 1.
Information Mode Video Screen Display

If your vehicle is not equipped with the separate
DVD player, the following events in the Radio
will cause the screen(s) to automatically switch
to Radio Disc mode.
•Loading a disc in the radio CD/DVD player
• AM/FM band selection via Radio
Auxiliary InputsFor each video screen there is an auxiliary (Aux
jack) device input which is used to connect exter-
nal 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. When connecting an ex-
ternal source to the AUX
input, be sure to follow
the standard color coding
for the VES™ jacks:1. Video in (yellow)
2. Left audio in (white)
3. Right audio in (red)
Using The Auxiliary Audio/Video Input
Jacks (AUX)
•
Lower the screen or press the POWER button
on the remote control to turn the screen on.
•
Plug the Audio and/or Video outputs from the
external device with volume turned up into
the AUX jack (make sure to match up the
color coding: Video is Yellow, Left Audio is
White, and Right Audio is Red). Then navi-
gate to VES AUX1 or VES AUX2 mode in the
Select Mode screen. •
To exit out of AUX mode, use the MODE
button on the remote control to navigate out
of AUX mode. (Refer to the instructions in the
Mode Selection Menu section of this
manual).

next track on the CD. Pressing the bottom of the
switch once will go to the beginning of the
current track, or to the beginning of the previous
track if it is within one second after the current
track begins to play.
If you press the switch up or down twice, it plays
the second track; three times, it will play the
third, etc.
The center button on the left side rocker switch
has no function for a single-disc CD player.
However, when a multiple-disc CD player is
equipped on the vehicle, the center button will
select the next available CD in the player.
CD/DVD DISC MAINTENANCE
To keep a CD/DVD in good condition, take the
following precautions:
1. Handle the disc by its edge; avoid touching
the surface.
2. If the disc is stained, clean the surface with a
soft cloth, wiping from center to edge.3. Do not apply paper or tape to the disc; avoid
scratching the disc.
4. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thin-
ner, cleaners, or anti-static sprays.
5. Store the disc in its case after playing.
6. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.
7. Do not store the disc where temperatures
may become too high.
NOTE:
If you experience difficulty in playing a particu-
lar disc, it may be damaged (i.e., scratched,
reflective coating removed, a hair, moisture or
dew on the disc) oversized, or have protection
encoding. Try a known good disc before con-
sidering disc player service.

RADIO OPERATION AND
MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone
being on in your vehicle can cause erratic or
noisy performance from your radio. This condi-
tion may be lessened or eliminated by relocat-
ing the mobile phone antenna. This condition is
not harmful to the radio. If your radio perfor-
mance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the
repositioning of the antenna, it is recommended
that the radio volume be turned down or off
during mobile phone operation when not using
Uconnect® (if equipped).
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The air conditioning and heating system is
designed to make you comfortable in all types
of weather.
