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.

• Reversing lamp
• Liftgate release
• Folding liftgate release
• Ignition switch, terminal 15 (turn key to 0
position, then turn key to II position.)
An acoustic signal sounds and the turn signal
lamps flash to indicate receipt of each input signal
by the generic electronic module.
Test the windshield wiper "intermittent mode"
stage input signal (only vehicles with adjustable
intermittent mode):
The windshield wiper switch must be switched to
"intermittent mode" in order to test the input signal.
The delay times of the input signals can then be
tested by operating the rotary switch. Each change
of the rotary switch position is indicated by an
acoustic signal and illumination of the turn signals.
Output signals
SWITCH the wiper switch to the "Intermittent"
position to test the output signals. PRESSING the
heated rear window switch activates the output
signals in the following order:
• Left-hand turn signal
• Right-hand turn signal
• Main beam
• Dipped beam
• Windshield wiper stage I
• Windshield wiper stage II
• Heated rear window
• Heater blower motor
• Headlamp washer system (vehicles with HID headlamps)
• Electric booster heater (if fitted)
• Autolamps (if fitted)
• Alarm horn (vehicles with alarm system)
• Rear window wiper
• Heated rear window relay
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 7km/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.
Resetting 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 marker lamps (side lights) and licence plate lamp in
automatic headlamps mode
• Rear wiper
• Headlamp washer assembly
• Electric booster heater
• Alarm horn
• 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. SWITCH 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. G1030787en
