In addition to having all the buttons and
functionality listed in the DVD and CD
Controls section, the remote control has
several other buttons that offer additional
functions. It is an infrared remote control,
and must be pointed at the face of the
RSE at a 45° angle for best results. It
requires a CR2025 battery (included).
The remote control has the following
additional buttons:
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The RSE system is always “awake”
when the vehicle's ignition is turned on
or when the vehicle is in “accessory
power mode.”
1. Stop
Pressing this button once will stop DVD
or CD play. To eject a disc, you must use
the eject button on the control panel.
2. Speaker Volume “+” and “-”
These buttons control the volume of the
audio of a DVD or CD through the vehicle
speakers, not the volume from head-
phones. Press “+” to turn the volume up
and “-” to turn the volume down.
3. Play/Pause
When an audio CD(VCD/DVD) is insert-
ed, the RSE will display the Kia logo,
then automatically begin playing the first
track. The track number and time elapsed
for the current track is displayed.
If a CD(VCD/DVD) is loaded and playing,
press the PLAY/PAUSE( ) button to

ping and playing the CD(VCD/ DVD) by
pressing PLAY/PAUSE( ) button on
the remote control; cycling the ignition and

the previous play. The player will automati-
cally play this previous play position unless
the STOP/EJECT( ) button is pressed.

4. Display
When the player is in DVD mode, press the
DISP button to view the DVD title, chapter
number and elapsed time and other infor-
mation about the DVD currently playing. It will also display brightness. There are
“Day Time” brightness with brightest level
and “Night Time” brightness which has 70%
level of “Day Time” brightness. Adjust the
level of brightness by pressing the
REV(dimmer) or FWD(brighter) buttons.
The next time the player is turned on, it will
return to the brightness level it was adjusted
to when last used.
The RSE unit has two presets of display
brightness. When the headlamp is turned
on, the display brightness level will be
dimmed as the preset. However, when the
headlamp is turned off, the display bright-
ness will return to the daytime brightness.
Press DISP to adjust the image format. The
image format, also known as the aspect
ratio, is a ratio of the height to width of the
image on the screen. For example, a 4:3
ratio would mean an image that is 4 units by
3 units. You have two options: 4:3 (normal)
and 16:9 (widescreen). Press the display
button to select the preferred aspect ratio.
When the RSE unit receives video signals
from the AUX, the aspect ratio can be
changed to 16:9 or 4:3 by the DISP button.
The aspect ratio information will auto-
matically disappear if no button is
pressed for three seconds.

not permissible by law should
never be used during operation of
the vehicle.

loose objects may drop on the
floor and it could interfere with
the operation of the foot pedals,
possibly causing an accident.
Keep all things in the vehicle
safely stored.
