When the rotary knob is actuated in the switched-on state the radio and navigation module (A2/56)can be
switched off.
Switch-off characteristics when voltage is too low
The central processor in the radio and navigation module (A2/56) permanently monitors the battery voltage.
Depending on the voltage value the system will act as follows:
The battery voltage less than 9.5 volts
If the battery voltage drops below 9.5 volts the radio and navigation module (A2/56) switches off
automatically.
If the system switches off and the voltage increases to greater than 9.5 volt the radio and navigation module
(A2/56) does not switch back on automatically.
If the system switches off it can be switched back on manually .
