Outputs Not Connected to Electronic Battery Master Switch
The following outputs are supplied by the PM separately from the Electronic Battery Master Switch.
- Rear window heater (HHS)
- Light Module (LM)
- Car Access System (CAS)
- DME
- Alarm system (DWA)
- Emergency power siren (SINE)
- Cigarette lighter (ZIG)
- Electrochromatic mirrors (EC)
- Park Distance Control (PDC)
- Rain/light sensor (RLS)
- Interior lighting (IB)
- Central locking trunk lid drive (ZV)
- Central locking, fuel filler flap (ZV)
- Trunk lid Soft Close Motor (SCA)

The advantages of this arrangement are:
- The exterior lighting can remain on (for safety reasons) even if the Electronic Battery Master switch is off.
- The alarm system is always armed.
- No additional fuses and wiring for actuators in nearby locations.

Fuses
The outputs for the rear window heater, KL R and KL 15, are not protected by conventional fuses. They are supplied via a power transistor (MOS-FET) in the Power Module.

By measuring the current and comparing it with stored threshold levels, the Power Module can detect a short circuit and disconnect the circuit it needed. The outputs for CAS, DWA and DME are protected by internal electronic fuses
