Hello there!
When i open my gloves compartment, the led light in the kitchen turns on.
Is this normal?
Thanks and greetings from Belgium.
 
:D I bet some have already gone out and tested this; I did it. And unfortunately can't help you now: when I open my door, the interior lighting goes on and also the lighting on the kitchen cabinet but not the ones inside the cabinets (they are turned off with the switch at the side of the cabinet). When I open the glove box after opening the door, it's still not on. Doesn't seem related to me but I'm not sure. Better listen to other people's experimental tests.

Edit: I've read the Dutch question you posted and there you made it clear: you mean the led strip at the cabinets (not the ones inside): well, as I said: they go on when I open the door (and go out after a while).

Bedankt Calibusje.
Ik neem aan dat u Nederlands spreekt? De presets aan het het keukenblok zijn mij gekend.Alleen begrijp ik niet goed wat het nut is van de verbinding handschoenkastje-keukenblok. Hopelijk geen storing:-(.
Alvast bedankt voor uw reactie.

So, just tested and after many tryouts and a lot of possibilities: open glove box while driving, both with the LED strip on the kitchen cabinets in the on position and in the off position / the second button from the left in the upper console pressed if not / door open and close again (when stationary, of course) and wait until everything goes out, etc.
It happened indeed: once the LED strip went on (and not off) when I opened the glove compartment, bizarre indeed and I am still looking for the position of all the buttons when that happened. I think: press the button on the console above the dashboard, switch off the led strip button on the side of the cabinet and open the glove compartment while driving.
Not much of help, I know but al least you know you’re not alone ;)

Zo, even getest en na veel uitproberen en heel veel mogelijkheden: handschoenenkastje openen tijdens het rijden, zowel met de ledstrip op de keukenkastjes in de aan-stand als in de uit-stand / de tweede knop van links in de bovenste console ingedrukt zo niet / deur open en weer dicht (bij stilstand natuurlijk) en wachten tot alles uit gaat etc.
Het gebeurde inderdaad: een keer ging de ledstrip aan (en niet uit) toen ik het dashboardkastje opendeed, bizar inderdaad en ik ben nog steeds aan het zoeken naar de stand van alle knoppen toen dat gebeurde. Ik denk: druk op de knop op de console boven het dashboard, zet de ledstripknop aan de zijkant van de kast uit en open het dashboardkastje tijdens het rijden.
Geen grote hulp, ik weet het, maar je weet tenminste dat je niet de enige bent ;)

On the contrary!
I think that's a very big help!
Like you said, now i know its not a malfunction and don't have to worry.
Many thanks Calibusje:thumb

The lights in the front of the cabinet can be set to come on when opening the van doors by doing a double click of the lights switch by the side of the kitchen shelf. Double click again to switch off the feature.

It doesn't seem to work that way with ours, but I'll keep trying.

Ha, I learned something new today! Whenever my led strip has been acting up, it was just me accidentally double clicking! Thank you for sharing

We have anT6.1 with all the lighting stuff and double clicking like said doesn’t do anything. Click ones: on (or off depending what setting you had to start with), clicking again: off (or on when your starting setting was on). Double clicking has the same effect. Must try harder I guess :D
