- Function sequence for glove compartment illumination
Function sequence for interior illumination
The overhead control panel control unit reads in the status of the dome lamp buttons directly and transmits it via the interior CAN to the front SAM control unit and to the rear SAM control unit (model 205.1). The front SAM control unit sends the request to switch on the interior illumination via interior CAN to the overhead control panel control unit, which then directly actuates the corresponding components.
The following components of the interior illumination are switched on or off manually by operating the front dome lamp button:
- Front dome lamp (model 205.0/1/2/3, 253)
- Left interior/reading lamp (model 205.4)
- Right interior/reading lamp (model 205.4)
- Left reading lamp in inside rearview mirror (model 205.0/1/2/3, 253 with code 876 (Interior Light Package), actuation via roof LIN)
- Right reading lamp in inside rearview mirror (model 205.0/1/2/3, 253 with code 876 (Interior Light Package), actuation via roof LIN)
The following components of the interior illumination are manually switched on or off dimmed by operating the rear dome lamp button (model 205.0/1/2/3, 253):
- Left rear interior lamp in left rear dome lamp (model 205.0/1/2, 253)
- Right rear interior lamp in right rear dome lamp (model 205.0/1/2 with code 876 (Interior Light Package), model 253)
- Rear interior lamp in rear dome lamp (model 205.3 with code 876 (Interior Light Package))
- Left rear vanity mirror dome lamp in left rear vanity mirror unit (model 205.1 with code U05 (Make-up mirror in rear passenger compartment))
- Right rear vanity mirror dome lamp in right rear vanity mirror unit (model 205.1 with code U05 (Make-up mirror in rear passenger compartment))
For model 205, model 253.99 with code 531 (COMAND APS) or model 253 with code 549 (Connect 20 HIGH (NTG6)), the interior lighting in the rear can also be activated or deactivated via voice control. The driver hands-free system microphone is directly read in by the head unit for this purpose. The head unit processes the speech signals and transmits the operation signals via the user interface CAN, electronic ignition lock control unit and interior CAN to the front SAM control unit. The front SAM control unit sends the request to switch on the interior illumination via interior CAN to the overhead control panel control unit, which then directly actuates the corresponding components.
