The overhead control panel control unit is a CAN-B subscriber in the overall network.
Rear dome lamp switch (1)
Pressing the rear dome lamp switch (1) switches the interior illumination in the rear on or off.
Left front reading lamp switch (2) and Left front reading lamp (3)
Pressing the left front reading lamp switch (2) switches the left front reading lamp (3) in the overhead control panel on or off.
Right front reading lamp switch (4) and Right front reading lamp (5)
Pressing the right front reading lamp switch (4) switches the right front reading lamp (5) in the overhead control panel on or off.
Dome lamp switch (6) and Front dome lamp (7)
The dome lamp switch (6) is a rocker switch with 3 switch positions.
If the dome lamp switch (6) is in the center position, the automatic control for the interior illumination is activated.
The interior illumination is automatically switched on in dark conditions when:
• The vehicle is unlocked
• A door is opened
• The transmitter key is removed from the ignition lock
The interior illumination switches back off after a delay.
Pressing the dome lamp switch (6) to the right out of the center position switches off the automatic control for the interior illumination.
Pressing the dome lamp switch (6) to the left out of the center position only switches on the front dome lamp (7) in the overhead control panel.
Pressing the dome lamp switch (6) to the center position switches the front dome lamp (7) back off and reactivates the automatic control for the interior illumination.
