Kombi

German to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
Optische und Akustische Warnungen (Kunde)
Da auf Grund der Fahrberechtigungserkennung beim Advanced (Driver Card) und Integrated Profile (Remote Button) eine größere Anzahl von Fehlauslösungen durch Bedienungsfehler des Kunden (z.B. Driver Card vergessen) zu erwarten sind, sollen mit Hilfe von Warnhinweisen und Warntönen im Kombi oder über die Fahrzeugalarmanlage im BCM hinten die Fehlauslösungen und somit die Kosten für den Kunden reduziert werden.

Akustische Warnung über die DWA BCM hinten und den Summer im Kombi
Beim Profil Integrated (für Belgien/Luxemburg) muss der Remote Button jedes Mal vor Einschalten der Zündung aktiviert werden, da ansonsten ein Zündungsalarm ausgelöst wird. Um die Anzahl der Fehlalarme zu reduzieren
soll der Kunde vor der Alarmgenerierung akustisch gewarnt werden.

Wenn bei 60s bzw. 120s die Zündung noch eingeschaltet ist erfolgt die Warnung über den Summer des Kombis.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Sabine Akabayov, PhD

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

BCM is probably a body control module, which means you're looking for "Kombi" on a module/component level. Kombi could be short for Kombiinstrument:

BCM (Body Control Module) controls the operation of various electrical units .... Front door switch driver side. Combination meter (warning buzzer) ...

neutral BirgitBerlin : are you sure this is not the "Kombi" as in "type of car" (estate car). I am wondering because it uses the male article for Kombi, not female what you would expect for "Kombination".

In short - yes. Not only for the module level reason, but also because it wouldn't make any sense to have a buzzer in a station wagon and a flashing light in a sedan.
