WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2011 GMC Yukon XL, 2011 GMC Yukon, 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2011 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Wireless headphones are optional and allow for rear seat passengers to use the RSE or RSA functions without disturbing the listening of front seat passengers. The wireless headphones receive audio signals from the infrared (IR) transmitters on the overhead console. This transmission is line of sight only, so audio quality will be degraded if anything blocks the transmitter signal from reaching the headphones. On some models, the infrared transmitter will have red LEDs illuminated when the RSE is activated.

The wireless headphones include 2 channels. This allows rear seat passengers to utilize both RSE and RSA functions without disturbing one another. The toggle switch on the right side headphone earpiece switches between channel one and channel 2. RSE is broadcast on channel one, and RSA on channel 2.

Each set of headphones has a rotary volume control. To adjust the volume, adjust this control. The headphones may automatically turn OFF if they lose the infrared signal from the system for approximately 4 minutes in order to preserve their battery power. The signal may be lost if the system is turned off or if the headphones are out of range of the infrared signal transmitters that are located near the video display screen.
