Introduction
The RSE system1 provides entertainment for
the rear seat passengers by making it possible
to e.g., watch a film, play music, listen to the
radio or connect an external device such as a
game console.
RSE is fully integrated into the vehicle's info-
tainment system and can be used at the same
time as other infotainment features.
For example, if a rear seat passenger is using
A/V-AUX and headphones, the driver and front
seat passenger can still use the vehicle's radioor media player. However, only one disc can be
played in the media player at a time. You can
listen to music from e.g., an iPod Ÿ or from
streaming audio files using the Bluetooth Ÿ
function.
The RSE system can be controlled from the
front screen (parental control).
Different media can be played or viewed from
different sources on the various screens (front
center console and/or the respective screens
in the rear seat). It is also possible to play or
view media from the same source on one or

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.

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.
