more of the screens. However, it is not possible
to play a film from USB while a CD or DVD is
being played.
CAUTION
When transporting large objects in the rear
seat, be sure that there is adequate space
between the object(s) and the RSE screens
to help avoid scratching or damaging these
screens.
If necessary, cover the screens with a suit-
able material.
NOTE
•The RSE screens and remote control
may not function in very low or very high
cabin temperatures. They will become
operable again after the climate control
system has created a comfortable tem-
perature in the cabin.
•Keep the IR transceivers' lenses clean
by wiping them regularly with a damp
cloth. A dirty lens could affect the func-
tion of the remote control.
Ignition modes and electrical current to
RSE
RSE can be activated with the ignition in
modes I or II (and when the engine is running).See page 82 for detailed information about the
various ignition modes. If a film is being played,
it will stop momentarily while the engine is
being started and will resume when the engine
is running.
NOTE
Using RSE for more than approx.
10 minutes when the engine is not running
will drain the vehicle's battery and may
make the engine difficult or impossible to
start.
A message will be displayed on the screen
if the battery's charge level becomes too
low.
Using the system's menusSelections in the RSE menus are made using
the remote control. See page 261 for more
information about the RSE menus.
Remote control
A remote control is included with the RSE sys-
tem, which can be used to control both screens
in the rear seat as well as other infotainment
system functions.
See page 264 for more detailed information
about the remote control.

following occurs:
•The tailgate is closed manually
•The ignition is switched off and the key
is removed for approximately 10

To do so:
•Open the tailgate manually, hold it at the
desired maximum opening angle and
press the tailgate's closing button for at
least 3 seconds. When the tailgate is
released, programming is complete.

cal function will be switched off and the
tailgate will be released from the electrical
system.
•If the tailgate is being closed, it will stop
and move slightly in the opposite direction.
