Animation only runs when the vehicle detects a certain darkness and the vehicle is stationary.
When the animation intervenes 4 times in succession, so-called “play prevention” prevents the other
animations. The function (reset) is reset by switching the vehicle ignition on again.
“Coming / Leave Home = Automated Home lights” function corresponds to standard lighting. This
function must be activated (see also vehicle operating instructions).
