quality automatically. While the system is adjusting the audio
sound, the audio sound fades out and then fades in.

system. The rear seat entertainment system can play DVD video, audio
CD, video CD, CD text, dts-CD or DVD audio only when a disc
is loaded in the DVD player.
You can enjoy videos and sound when your personal audio
system is connected to the input terminal adapter on the rear
console box. For details, refer to the manufacturer's
instructions.
You can enjoy the rear seat entertainment system with
