General information on audio output (MOST)
Energy management
Most control units required for the audio output are connected to the energy management system. This means that the MOST bus is shut down in the event of a poor energy balance in the vehicle. Depending on the condition of the battery, there are various shut-down levels affecting different control units. Audio output is no longer possible once the corresponding shut-down level has been activated.
  Note
If there is no »ignition on« signal at terminal 15 and no buttons are pressed on the multimedia system operating unit -E380-, the MOST bus will operate for a limited period only. After this period, an »ignition on« signal must be activated at terminal 15, or the ON/OFF button on the multimedia system operating unit -E380- must be pressed (depending on the operating status of the MOST bus) to continue the audio output.
