This system manages the duration of use of certain functions, in order to
conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery with the ignition off.
After switching off the engine, you can still use functions such as the audio
and telematic system, the wipers and the dipped beam headlamps or courtesy lamps,
for a combined duration of approximately 40 minutes...
