Automatic switch-off for side lights and parking lights
The side lights and parking lights drain the 12-volt vehicle battery when switched on. In order to
ensure that the engine can be started, the side lights and parking lights are automatically switched
off when the charge level of the 12 V vehicle battery is so low that there is a risk of no longer being
able to restart the vehicle. Switch-off takes place at the earliest after the side and parking lights
have been switched on for two hours.
The side lights and parking lights will not switch off automatically if there is insufficient battery
capacity for them to remain switched on for two hours. In this case, the side lights and parking lights
will remain switched on until the 12-volt vehicle battery is fully discharged. It will no longer be
possible to restart the engine ⇒.
