Function prerequisites:
Circuit 15 ON
Function
The headlamp cleaning system is switched on by pressing the SRA [HCS] switch (S4/1) .
The corresponding input of the Extended Activity Module (EAM) (N10/1) , which receives the input
from the switch, sends the signal to relay 5 (F2k5) .
The relay switches circuit 30 , for a duty cycle of approx. 1 second, through to the HCS pump (M5/2) .
The HCS pump (M5/2) builds up pressure in the washing water line.
The water pressure acts against the return springs of the telescopic nozzles.
The telescopic nozzles extend and spray washing water onto the headlamp glass.
After the duty cycle, the pressure in the washing water line drops again and the telescopic nozzles move
back to their starting position due to spring load.
Pressing the SRA [HCS] switch (S4/1) again during an ongoing headlamp cleaning cycle has no effect.
A further cleaning cycle can only be initiated after the previous cycle has ended.

second. Driven by the water pressure, the nozzles first move telescopically into the cleaning position. Then as a
result of a further pressure rise, a valve at each telescopic nozzle opens and an exactly metered quantity of
washing water is sprayed onto the headlamp lenses.
Swirl chambers are provided at the tips of the telescoping sections and these ensure controlled propagation of
the water jet, even when traveling fast. After the cleaning process, the telescoping sections are retracted back
into the starting position with the aid of return springs.

SWITCHING INTERIOR LIGHTS ON/OFF MANUALLY, FUNCTION - GF82.20-P-2009GH
MODEL 163
The front dome lamp (with shut-off delay and reading lamp) (E15/2) , the right rear dome lamp (E15/9)
and the left rear dome lamp (E15/8) can be switched manually to continuous operation. Each lamp is equipped
with a switch which is actuated by pressing the lamp glass.
The actuated switch interrupts the automatic lamp actuation by the all-activity module (AAM, N10) and
simultaneously switches the lamp connected to c. 30 to ground. Continuous operation can only be terminated by
pressing the switch again. It is not possible to switch off the automatic lamp actuation.
The left front and right front footwell lamps (E17/16 and E17/15) are switched on together with the front
dome lamp (E15/2) The rear interior lamp (E15/3) can also be switched manually to continuous operation.
Automatic lamp actuation is actuated directly when the tailgate is opened and not by the all-activity module. It
is not possible to switch off automatic lamp actuation manually.

SWITCHING INTERIOR LIGHTS ON/OFF AUTOMATICALLY, FUNCTION - GF82.20-P-2010GH
MODEL 163
Automatic actuation of interior lights is triggered by
opening a door,
unlocking vehicle with transmitter key,
switching off ignition within 30 seconds of switching off exterior lighting (terminal 58k)
or
after crash recognition.
When opening a door, the respective rotary tumbler microswitch (S87/2, S87/3, S87/6 or S87/7) is actuated
and a signal for automatic light actuation is sent to All-Activity-Module (AAM, N10)
With crash recognition by ETR control module with airbag (ETR/ AB, N2/2) up to 11.99 or by restraint
systems control module (N2/7) as of 12/99, signal for automatic light actuation is sent to All-Activity-Module
via a separate cable.
All-Activity-Module actuates correspondin
