Why do the display LEDs flash when driving backward even though the R20 is switched off?

Why do the display LEDs flash when driving backward even though the R20 is switched off?

During the forward movement the motor winding (Stator) is uncoupled (by the freerun). This is not the case when moving backward, as the motor windings create a voltage causing the LED´s flashing, which is completely normal.
