Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to select and
listen to any of the available radio sources: AM/FM,
XM, CD, or DVD. However, a rear seat passenger
cannot control a source selected on the radio by
someone in the front of the vehicle. For example,
the RSA cannot be used to change CD tracks if the
radio is set to CD. Also, if the radio is switched to
a source the RSA has control of, sound will not be
lost, but the RSA will lose control of that source.
Rear seat passengers always have control of the volume
