Activation of instrument cluster:

Owing to the black-screen technology, the details on the instrument cluster (A1) (e.g. displays, gauges, etc.) are clearly visible only when the instrument cluster (A1) has been activated.

When the instrument cluster (A1) is activated:

the current contents appear on the displays,
the instrument cluster lighting (A1) is switched on,
the fuel reserve indicator lamp (A1e4) comes on.

Switching on "Terminal 115R" activates the instrument cluster (A1). When "Terminal 115R" is switched off, the instrument cluster (A1) remains active for an additional 30 s after any warning messages have been processed.

With "Terminal 15R OFF", the instrument cluster (A1) is activated under the following circumstances:

if the reset button is pressed (right-hand button) (instrument cluster (A1) activated for 30 seconds),
if the driver's door is opened or closed (instrument cluster (A1) activated for 30 seconds),
if the standing lamps or driving lights are switched on (the instrument cluster (A1) is active for as long as the standing lamps remain switched on).

If one of the circumstances mentioned above occurs while the instrument cluster (A1) is already active, the instrument cluster remains active for an additional 30 seconds. It is not possible to activate the instrument cluster (A1) using the keys on the multifunction steering wheel.

Networking:

The rear SAM control unit (N10/8) monitors the status of the door contact switch and relays the corresponding data to the interior compartment CAN.
The status of the standing lamps (ON/OFF)is sent on the interior compartment CAN by the left front SAM control unit (N10/6).

The instrument cluster (A1) receives these messages and is activated if necessary.
