Acoustic Generators

Audible warnings are given in support of check control messages. All of the acoustic outputs requested in the instrument cluster are generated in the Car Information Computer, CIC. The sound patterns of the various acoustic outputs are also stored in the CIC.

An acoustic generator is built into the instrument cluster fro the turn indicator sound.

The footwell module is responsible for control of the direction indicator function via the K-CAN2.

The vehicles additionally feature an ignition key warning and a seat belt warning.

An uninterrupted warning tone sounds when the driver's door is opened with terminal 15 OFF and the identification transmitter in place.

The audible signal is switched off by closing the door or after 30 minutes.

The seat belt warning is activated at terminal 15 ON if the seat belt buckle contact is not closed.

The audible warning is intermittent and is no longer than 6 seconds. The indicator and warning lamp remains on.
