Stereo RCA Jacks
The RCA jacks are located on the faceplate of the DVD
player. They allow you to hook up an auxiliary device
such as a camcorder or a video game unit. You may
require adapter connectors or cables to connect
your auxiliary device to the RCA jacks. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for proper usage.
To use the auxiliary function, connect a camcorder or a
video game unit to the RCA jacks and turn on the
auxiliary device. If you want to view a DVD, insert the
DVD into the DVD player. The system will automatically
switch to DVD and start
to play. To switch between
the auxiliary device and the DVD, press the SOURCE button
on the DVD player or on the remote control.
See “DVD Player” and “Remote Control’’ later in
this section for more information. When the auxiliary
device is the source for the entertainment system,

Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
(With Entertainment System)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to
and control any of the music sources: radio, cassette
tapes and
CDs. However, the rear seat passengers
can only control the music sources that the front seat
passengers are not listening to. For example, rear
seat passengers may listen to a cassette tape or
CD
through headphones while the driver listens to the radio
through the front speakers. The rear seat passengers
have control of the volume for each set of headphones.
Be aware that the front seat audio controls always
have priority over the
RSA controls. If the front seat
passengers switch the source for the main radio
to a remote source, the
RSA will play the same remote
source. The rear speakers will be muted when the
RSA power is turned on. You may operate the RSA
functions even when the main radio is off.
The following functions are controlled by the RSA
system buttons:
RSA PWR (Power): Press this button to turn RSA on
or
off. The headphone symbol will appear on the display
above the video screen when the system is on.
AM FM: Press this button to switch between AM, FM1
and FM2 when the headphones are on channel B.
The selected radio station frequency will appear on the
display above the video screen.
If the front passengers
are already listening to the radio, the
RSA controller
will not switch between the bands and cannot change
the frequency.

While listening to a CD, press the right arrow to hear the
next track on the CD. Press the left arrow to go back to
the start of the current track (if more than eight seconds
have played). These arrows are inactive
if the CD mode
on the front radio is in use.
P.SET SCAN (Preset

must be listening to something different for each of
these functions to work:
Press and hold this button to scan through the
preset radio stations set on the pushbuttons on the
main radio. The radio will go to a preset station
stored on your pushbuttons, play for a few seconds,
then go on to the next preset station. This feature
will only scan the presets that are in the selected
band. The selected radio station frequency will
appear on the display above the video screen.

DVD Distortion
You may experience video distortion when operating
cellular phones, scanners, CB radios, Global Position
Systems (GPS)*, two-way radios, mobile fax, or
wal kie talkies.
It may be necessary to turn
off the DVD player when
operating one of these devices in or near the vehicle.
*Excludes the Onstar@ System.
Understanding Radio Reception
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise
if you ever get it.
FM
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals
will reach only about
10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km).
Tall buildings or hills can interfere with
FM signals,
causing the sound to come and go.
Care of Your Cassette Tape Player
A tape player that is not cleaned regularly can cause
reduced sound quality, ruined cassettes or a damaged
mechanism. Cassette tapes should be stored
in their
cases away from contaminants, direct sunlight and
extreme heat. If they aren’t, they may not operate
properly or may cause failure
of the tape player.
Your tape player should be cleaned regularly after
every
50 hours of use. Your radio may display CLEAN
to indicate that you have used your tape player for
50 hours without resetting the tape clean timer.
If this message appears on the display, your cassette
tape player needs to be cleaned. It will still play
tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible
to prevent damage to your tapes and player. If you
notice a reduction in sound quality, try a known good
cassette to see
if the tape or the tape player is at fault.
If this other cassette has no improvement in sound
quality, clean the tape player.
For best results, use a scrubbing action, non-abrasive
cieaning casseiie wirn pads wnicn scrub tne tape
head as the hubs of the cleaner cassette turn.
The recommended cleaning cassette is available
through your dealership.
3-1 03
Page 261 of 466

The broken tape detection feature of your cassette
tape player may identify the cleaning cassette as
a damaged tape, in error. To prevent the cleaning
cassette from being ejected, use the following steps:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Turn the radio off.
3. Press and hold the TAPE CD button for five
seconds. READY will appear on the display and
a cassette symbol will flash for five seconds.
4. Insert the scrubbing action cleaning cassette.
5. Eject the cleaning cassette after the manufacturer’s
recommended cleaning time.
After the cleaning cassette is ejected, the broken tape
detection feature will be active again.
You may also choose a non-scrubbing action, wet-type
cleaner which uses a cassette with a fabric belt to
clean the tape head. This type of cleaning cassette will
not eject on its own. A non-scrubbing action cleaner
may not clean as thoroughly as the scrubbing type
cleaner. The use of a non-scrubbing action, dry-type
cleaning cassette is not recommended. After you
clean the player, press and hold the EJT
button for five seconds to reset the CLEAN indicator.
The radio will display CLEANED to show the indicator
was reset.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality
may degrade over time. Always make sure the cassette
tape is in good condition before you have your tape
player serviced.
Care of Your CDs and DVDs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust. If the surface of a disc is soiled, dampen
a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution
and clean it, wiping from the center to the edge.
Be sure never to touch the side without writing when
handling discs. Pick up discs by grasping the outer
edges or the edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Care of Your CD and DVD Player
The use of CD lens cleaner discs is not advised, due to
the risk of contaminating the lens of the CD optics
with lubricants internal to the CD mechanism.

How to Reset the Change Engine
Oil Message
The GM Oil Life System calculates when to change your
engine oil and filter based on vehicle use. Anytime your
oil is changed, reset the system
so it can calculate when
the next oil change is required.
If a situation occurs where
you change your oil prior to a change engine oil message
being turned on, reset the system.
1. With the ignition key in RUN but the engine off,
repeatedly push the tripheset button until OIL is
displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
2. Once OIL is displayed, push and hold the tripheset
button for five seconds. The number will disappear
and be replaced by
100 (indicating 100% oil life
remaining).
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the change engine oil message comes back on,
the engine oil life monitor has not reset. Repeat the
procedure.
What to Do with Used Oil
Used engine oil contains certain elements that may be
unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer.
Don’t let used oil stay on your skin for very long.
Clean your skin and nails with soap and water, or a
good hand cleaner. Wash or properly dispose of
clothing or rags containing used engine oil. See the
manufacturer’s warnings about the use and disposal
of oil products.
Used oil can be a threat to the environment. If you
change your own oil, be sure to drain all the oil from
the filter before disposal. Never dispose of oil by putting
it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into sewers,
or into streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it
by taking it to a place that collects used oil.
If you
have a problem properly disposing of your used oil,
ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling
center for help.
