Rear Seat Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system
works with the vehicle’s audio system and includes
a radio that accepts CD audio or DVD video, a
video display screen, two sets of wireless
headphones, and a remote control.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers
only. The driver cannot safely view the video
screen while driving and should not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the
RSE system might not work until the temperature
is within the operating range. The operating
range for the RSE system is above−4°F (−20°C)
or below 140°F (60°C). If the temperature of
your vehicle is outside of this range, heat or cool
the vehicle until the temperature is within the
operating range of the RSE system.
Headphones
The RSE includes two sets of wireless
headphones that are only dedicated to this
system. These headphones are used to listen
to the radio with CD and DVD or an auxiliary
device connected to the RCA jacks. The wireless
headphones have an ON/OFF switch and a
volume control.
To use the headphones, turn the switch to ON.
An indicator light on the headphones comes on.
If the light does not come on, the batteries
might need to be replaced. See “Battery
Replacement” later in this section for more
information. Switch the headphones to OFF
when not in use.
The infrared transmitters are located in the display
below the video screen. The headphones shut
off automatically to save the battery power if the
DVD system is shut off or if the headphones
are out of range of the transmitters for more than
three minutes. If you move too far forward or
step out of the vehicle, the headphones lose the
audio signal.

To adjust the volume on the headphones, use the
volume control located on the right side.
Notice:Do not store the headphones in heat
or direct sunlight. This could damage the
headphones and repairs will not be covered by
your warranty. Keep the headphones stored
in a cool, dry place.
Battery Replacement
To change the batteries, do the following:
1. Slide open the battery door located on the left
side of the headphones.
2. Replace the two AAA batteries in the
compartment. Make sure that they are
installed correctly, using the diagram on the
inside of the battery compartment.
3. Slide the battery door shut.
If the headphones are to be stored for a long
period of time, remove the batteries and keep them
in a cool, dry place.
Stereo RCA Jacks
The RCA jacks are located behind the video screen
on the overhead console. The RCA jacks allow
audio or video signals to be connected from an
auxiliary device such as a camcorder or a video
game unit to the RSE. Adapter connectors or
cables might be required to connect the auxiliary
device to the RCA jacks. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for proper usage.

Page 213 of 470
The RCA jacks are color coded to match typical
home entertainment system equipment. The yellow
jack (right) is for the video input. The white jack
(middle) is for the left audio input. The red jack (left)
is for the right audio input. The red connector must
always be used in order for the DVD system to
recognize that an external source is plugged in.
With the radio on, the screen automatically
switches to the rear auxiliary input when the
red connector cable is inserted.
Power for auxiliary devices is not supplied by the
radio system.
To use the auxiliary function, connect a camcorder
or a video game unit to the RCA jacks and turn on
the auxiliary device. To view a DVD, insert the DVD
into the CD/DVD loading slot on the radio. The
system automatically switches to DVD and starts to
play. To switch between the auxiliary device and
the DVD, press the DVD/AUX button on the radio
faceplate or the SRCE (source) button on the
remote control. See “DVD Player” and “Remote
Control” later in this section for more information.
Audio Output
Only one audio source can be heard through the
speakers at one time.Press the power button to turn the radio on.
The radio can be heard through all of the
vehicle speakers.
When a DVD is inserted, playback is heard
through the vehicle speakers and headphones.
Front seat passengers can listen to the radio
by pressing the BAND button to select AM, FM or
XM™ (if equipped). The rear seat speakers are
muted for radio listening, and the DVD plays
through the headphones (RSE Mode).
When RCA jacks are connected, the rear speakers
are muted. The rear seat passengers are able
to hear audio from the auxiliary device through the
wireless headphones. The front seat passengers
are able to listen to the radio through the front
speakers, by pressing the BAND button to select
AM, FM, or XM (if equipped), or listen to a CD
that is inserted into the radio.
If a playback device is plugged into the radio’s
auxiliary input jack, the device can be heard
through all of the vehicle speakers. In RSE mode
the playback device is only heard through the
front speakers.

CDs, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3s can also be
played by the radio with CD and DVD.
If an error message displays on the video screen
or the radio, see “DVD Player Error Messages”
later in this section.
Auxiliary Input Jack

Traction Control System (TCS)
Your vehicle may have a traction control system
that limits wheel spin. This is especially useful
in slippery road conditions. The system operates
only if it senses that one or both of the front wheels
are spinning or beginning to lose traction. When
this happens, the system reduces engine power to
limit wheel spin.
This light will come on
when your traction
control system is
limiting wheel spin.
SeeLow Traction Light on page 173. You may
feel or hear the system working, but this is normal.
The traction control system automatically comes
on whenever you start your vehicle. To limit
wheel spin, especially in slippery road conditions,
you should always leave the system on.But you can turn the traction control system off if
you ever need to. You should turn the system
off if your vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud,
ice or snow and rocking the vehicle is required.
SeeRocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out on
page 277andIf Your Vehicle is Stuck in Sand,
Mud, Ice, or Snow on page 276for more
information.
If your vehicle is
equipped with the
2.2L L4 engine, the
traction control system
can be turned off by
pressing the traction
control button.
It is located on the instrument panel above the
audio system.
If your vehicle is equipped with the 3.5L V6 engine,
the traction control system will be turned off when
the shift lever is in REVERSE (R) or LOW (L).
The traction control system warning light will be
displayed on the instrument panel. SeeTraction
Control System (TCS) Warning Light on page 172
for more information.
