Rear Seat Entertainment System
Media overview
You can access various types of media from all
operating positions in the vehicle.
The media can be connected to any available
jacks in the vehicle or inserted into the various
drives.
RIf media from different sources are used, they
can be used separately from each of the oper- ating positions. Example: a film from the DVD
drive is played on the rear right-hand operat-
ing position. This means that another film
from the same DVD cannot be played sepa-
rately on the rear left-hand operating position. However, it is possible to use the radio, mem-
ory card, Media Register, Media Interface,
USB, online and Internet functions or AUX at
the same time from the rear left-hand oper-
ating position.
RIf you use the same medium on both sides,
you can both carry out the respective set-
tings. The "last one wins" principle applies
here, i.e. the last setting activated is favored.
RThe Internet can be used separately at all
operating positions.
RThe Internet can only be used if it is set up and
connected via a telephone (Ypage 142). You can select from the following media:

Recording the route
General notes
Routes are recorded using the SD card.
Requirements: the SD card has the FAT data
system format (e.g. FAT32).
When recording the route, bear in mind the fol-
lowing:
RIf the SD card is inserted, it must not be
removed during recording.
RIf route recording is started manually, it must
be finished manually before the multimedia
system is switched off (e. g. when the engine
is switched off).
RThe multimedia system minimizes the num-
ber of route points recorded. Therefore when
the recorded route is subsequently com-
menced, it may differ from the route that was
originally recorded.
