Climate control module (CCM) (3/112) checks the function of the electrical additional heater.

The central electronic module (CEM) transmits information regularly to the climate control module (CCM), for example, about the permitted size of the output voltage.

The climate control module (CCM) uses this information to prioritize between its loads. The climate control module (CCM) also uses the information to calculate how much output must be used to activate the electrical additional heater (9/41).

The central electronic module (CEM) (4/56) receives information via the CAN network from the climate control module (CCM).

The central electronic module (CEM) checks that the output voltage is not too great. See: CURRENT LIMITING 

The power consumption of the electrical additional heater is regulated via a pulse-width modulated signal from the central electronic module (CEM).
