It blinks as sort of a "security warning". Also helpful, at a glance (when
dark enough), to let you know whether or not you forget to turn OFF the
radio--it only blinks when radio is turned off. Although door doesn't need
to be locked.

As to various intervals: my first (RIP) '91 200q had a blink rate that I
recall was around 5 or 6 seconds. My current car (same model) blinks every
2.5 seconds. Don't know why. I doubt if it's related to battery
condition--although, in the limit, blink interval gets verrrry long when
the battery dies :-)
