Disable screen turn off

I realise that leaving the centre command screen on when parked and the engine off will deplete the battery, but what if I'm waiting in a car park for a passenger. Can you prevent the auto turn off of the system so I can listen to the radio. I've searched the forum and the manual but can't find any reference.
Regards and Merry Xmas to all.

Unfortunately, the radio/TV will turn off after quite a short period....10 mins or so, with the engine switched off. This is supposed to preserve battery power, but is a bit of a pain at times if you are watching the TV, as it takes ages to start up again.
Obviously, if the engine is running then it will not turn itself off.
