Rear Seat Audio (RSA)

The Rear Seat Audio Controller feature allows the rear seat passengers to listen to a different music source than the front seat passengers including the cassette tape and the remote Compact Disc (CD) players. For example, the rear seat passengers may listen to the cassette 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 headphone. Be aware that the primary radio controls always override the rear seat audio controls.

Seek (SEEK)
The sound will mute while seeking. The SEEK button is inactive when the front radio is also using the SEEK feature. Use the following procedure in order to seek:
1. Press the up arrow in order to tune to the next higher station (with enough strength) and stay there.
2. Press the down arrow to tune to the next lower station (with enough strength) and stay there.

Use the following procedure in order to seek selections on a cassette tape:
