The curve progression on the green line (1) drops off significantly in the graphic that is displayed. (Voltage under 3.9 Volt at 500mA)

NOTE: With several USB devices, a voltage around 4 V is not sufficient to guarantee the function. However, the vehicle is trouble-free! In this case, use a different USB device.

Troubleshooting:

Check USB cable connection between IMIB and vehicle (use spare cable from another IMIB if necessary).
Check the USB connection.
Check lines and plug connections in vehicle.
