System Operation
In-car entertainment
The audio system is connected to the MS CAN
network and uses an internal amplifier which
directly drives the system speakers. It can only be
operated via the head unit and the radio remote
control. The head unit is connected to the vehicle
on the medium speed CAN bus. This allows the
unit to be interrogated for diagnostic purposes.
The automatic volume control (AVC) adjusts the
audio volume depending on the driving speed. The
audio device receives the necessary signals for
the ABS (anti-lock brake system) wheel sensors
from the instrument cluster on the MS-CAN. As
vehicle speed increases the audio level is adjusted
to compensate for extra road and vehicle noise.
Eight AVC settings are possible.
To choose the setting for automatic volume control,
press the MENU button until the AVC display
appears.
The required adjustment level is determined by the
Infotainment control unit based on the driving
speed signal. The vehicle speed signal is received
over the CAN. The signal is an average of the four
wheel speed sensor signals. Should an invalid
speed signal be received the AVC will not alter the
output volume.
AVC is controlled by the audio amplifier. Component Description
Vehicles with standard audio system
The standard audio system can only be used via
the head unit, the radio remote control and the
mobile electronic accessories module.

Combined rain sensor/light sensor
CAUTIONS:
On vehicles with autolamps, retrofitting
with daytime running lamps is not
permissible, as otherwise, the engine
cannot be stopped when the lighting is
switched on.
On vehicles with autolamps, the daytime
running lamp fuse must not be fitted, as
otherwise, the engine cannot be stopped
when the lighting is switched on.
The combined rain sensor/light sensor is located
behind the interior rear view mirror.
autolamps The low beams, side lamps, license plate lamps
as well as the instrument cluster and instrument
panel illumination are switched on automatically if
all the following conditions are met:
• Ignition ON
• Light switch in the "AUTO" position
•
Detected ambient light conditions below a stored
threshold value
These are switched on and off by the GEM (generic
electronic module) in accordance with the input
signals from the combined rain/light sensor.
Headlamp switch-off delay
In vehicles with mid to high-end equipment, the
headlamp switch-off delay uses the dipped beam
headlamps and the door entry illumination (if
equipped) to illuminate the vehicle surroundings.
This function is activated by operating the main
beam headlamp lever with the ignition switched
off. After the last door has been closed, the function
remains active for a further 30 seconds and then
switches off automatically.
When a door or the tailgate is open, the switch-off
time is extended to 180 seconds. After the last door
has been closed, the switch-off time is reset to 30
seconds.
The headlamp switch-off delay can be deactivated
prematurely by operating the high beam lever again
or by switching on the ignition.
The switch-off time is adjusted to fixed values at
the factory and can
notbe re-programmed using
WDS.
Turn signals The turn signals and the warning lamp flash at a
specified frequency and, in the case of failure of a
turn signal, the frequency is doubled.
The turn signal lamps also have a one-touch lane
change function. If the multifunction lever is
pressed just slightly then the relevant turn signal
lamp is actuated 3 times.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATIONTO MODEL INDEX

FORD KUGA 2011.0MY WORKSHOP REPAIR MANUALE101615 E101616 E101617

The manual headlamp levelling system operates
with an electric motor which is controlled via a
rotary control in the instrument cluster.
Turn signals
The GEM switches the direction indicators and the
direction indicator side repeaters on.
The GEM sends a signal to the instrument cluster
via the CAN (controller area network) bus to switch
on the relevant turn indicator and the acoustic
signal.
The signals from the hazard flasher switch and
from the multifunction switch are transmitted to the
GEM via a wiring connection.
Combined rain sensor/light sensor
The ambient light sensor determines the general
light intensity.
For this purpose, it detects the light over as wide
an angle as possible, without taking the direction
of incidence into account.
The front light sensor determines the light intensity
directly in front of the vehicle.
If both the ambient light sensor and the front light
sensor detect a sudden reduction in light intensity
at the same time, then an algorithm-based
calculation is used to determine the fact that the
vehicle has entered a tunnel, a multi-storey car
park or a long underpass.
In this case the request for switching on the
external lighting and the indicator in the instrument
cluster is transmitted to the GEM.
If the vehicle enters into the shade thrown by a
large truck, the two sensors will register different
light intensities.. In this case, the algorithm-based
calculation will not result in the lights being
switched on.
The GEM incorporates a stepped switch-off of the
dipped beam headlamps, side lamps, license plate
illumination and the instrument cluster and
instrument panel illumination. If the ambient light
changes from dark to bright, the GEM first switches
off the low beams. The side lamps, license plate
lamps as well as the instrument cluster and
instrument panel illumination are switched off
approx. 6 seconds after the low beams have been
switched off.

When the heated rear window switch is pressed
again, the test of the relevant signal is terminated.
When the heated rear window switch is pressed
once more, the test for the next signal in the list is
started.
Ending the service mode
The GEM automatically ends service mode 20
seconds after the last input or at a driving speed
of over 7 km/h. However, service mode can be
manually ended at any time by proceeding as
follows:
• OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
• SWITCH OFF the ignition
• RELEASE the switch of the heated rear window
3 signals sound and the turn signal lamps illuminate
to indicate that service mode has ended.
Reset service mode
If, after completion of service mode, some functions
do not operate or do not operate properly, check
the following functions:
• Instrument cluster illumination, side lamps and license plate lamp in autolamps mode
• Rear wiper
• Headlamp Washers
• Electric booster heater
• Active anti-theft sounder
• Heated windshield
If one or more of the listed functions is not OK, it's
possible that the cause of the fault is due to not
exiting service mode properly. To reactivate the
functions correctly, perform the following steps:
1. SWITCH OFF the ignition
2. SWITCH OFF the switch for the windscreen wash/wipe system
3. OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
4. Turn on the ignition. 5. RELEASE the heated rear window switch (an
acoustic signal will sound if activation has been
performed correctly)
6. SWITCH the windscreen wash/wipe switch to the "Intermittent wipe" position
7. OPERATE the heated rear window switch 6 times (the main beam headlamps switch on and
off automatically)
8. SWITCH OFF the switch for the windscreen wash/wipe system
9. OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
10. SWITCH OFF the ignition
11. RELEASE the heated rear window switch (three
acoustic signals will sound if activation has been
performed correctly)
After completion of the work, check all the
functions.
Inspection and Checking
NOTE: The generic electronic module (GEM) forms
part of the central junction box (CJB).
NOTE: If the instrument cluster is changed, it must
be re-configured. For this purpose, the
vehicle-specific data is read out of the module to
be replaced using the Ford approved diagnostic
tool and is transferred to the new module.
NOTE: Before reading out the vehicle-specific data,
remake all the separated electrical connections in
the vehicle, so that communication between the
module and the Ford approved diagnostic tool is
ensured.
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of electrical damage.
Visual Inspection Electrical
• Fuse(s)
• Lamp(s)
• Bulb(s)
• Connector(s)
• Switch(s)
• Wiring harness
3. Resolve any obvious causes or concerns found during the visual inspection before carrying out
any further tests. G1055006en
