Radio with CD and DVD
If your vehicle has a Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) system, the vehicle has a radio that accepts
either CD audio or DVD video.
The radio with CD and DVD is very similar to
the radio with CD (Base) or the radio with
CD (MP3). If you are interested in learning more
about the radio and CD audio functions for
this type of radio system, seeRadio with CD
(Base) on page 186orRadio with CD (MP3)
on page 192earlier in this section for more
information.If you are interested in learning more about the
DVD functions of this radio system, seeRear Seat
Entertainment System on page 211later in this
section for more information.
Using an MP3
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 les that were recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW disc. The les can be recorded
with the following xed bit rates: 32 kbps, 40 kbps,
56 kbps, 64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps, 112 kbps,
128 kbps, 160 kbps, 192 kbps, 224 kbps,
256 kbps, and 320 kbps or a variable bit rate.
Song title, artist name, and album are available for
display by the radio when recorded using ID3
tags version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA les) and MP3
les. By default the radio reads only the
uncompressed audio and ignore the MP3 les.
Pressing the CAT (category) button toggles
between compressed and uncompressed
audio format.

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.

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.

The DVD player is only compatible with DVDs that
are authorized for use in the United States and
Canada (Region Code 1). The DVD region code is
printed on the jacket of most DVDs. Most audio
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
The radio system has an auxiliary input jack
located on the lower right side of the faceplate.
An external audio device such as an iPod,
MP3 player, or cassette player can be connected
to the auxiliary input jack for use as another
source for audio listening.
