After-running period of terminal 30 switched

In the standard scenario, Terminal 30g is switched off 30 min after Terminal R off. On vehicles with Telematic Control Unit (TCU) and telematics services or with auxiliary heater, it is switched off 60 min after Terminal R off. For E70 and E71 as of integration level 03/2009, it is switched off in the standard scenario 30 min after Terminal R is switched off and, on vehicles with auxiliary heaters (option SA 536), 45 min after Terminal R is switched off.

On vehicles with intelligent battery sensor, quiescent current monitoring starts approx. 70 min after Terminal. R off. The vehicle must remain in sleep mode for at least another 120 minutes without being woken up so that a new quiescent current monitoring cycle is recorded by the DME/DDE.

The small readings can be better resolved by zooming the time window.

NOTE: In Record mode, the decimal places of the readings are rounded at present. This problem will be eliminated so that the current readings can be displayed to an accuracy of 10 mA.

NOTE: If the engine has not been run for a certain amount of time, 2 additional wake-ups can occur on BMW models E60, E61, E63, E64 and E70, E71 as of model year 03/2007: 40 min and 80 min after switching off the engine, the instrument cluster (KOMBI) wakes up the vehicle to query the coolant temperature (see Fig 1 above). Both wake-up causes are normal and do not result in a fault memory entry.
On MINI models R55, R56 and R57 the 2 additional wake-up causes due to the instrument cluster (KOMBI) may occur 40 min and 80 min after Terminal R is switched off.
