The instrument cluster receives the value of the ambient temperature from the
outside temperature
sensor and makes this available via the PT-CAN. The Body Domain Controller
evaluates the signal and
triggers the activation of the mirror heating via the local interconnect network
bus. The control of the
heater output is dependent on the ambient temperature.
The mirror servomotors are activated by the mirror electronics. The request for
adjusting the exterior
mirror is received by the mirror electronics via the local interconnect network
bus.
The exterior mirrors still retain the folding in function, but now they can be
programmed to
automatically fold inward when the vehicle is locked. This feature must be
activated in the CID by
selecting My Vehicle.
