This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to any of the sources: radio, cassette tapes, or CDs. However, the rear seat passengers can only control the sources that the front seat passengers are not listening to. For example, rear seat passengers may listen to and control cassette tapes or CDs through the 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.
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 not be able to control the source. You can operate the rear seat audio when the main radio is off.
If your vehicle has the Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) system and the system is on, the rear seat passengers can listen to the DVDs through the wired headphone jacks on the RSA system. The RSE system cannot be controlled with the RSA system.
If the front seat passengers are listening to the RSE system through the vehicle's speakers and the rear seat passengers are using the wired headphones to listen to the RSA system, the BAND button will not access XM™ Satellite Radio Service.
