Risk of accident and injury
The operating safety of your vehicle could be compromised if service work is carried out improperly. You could lose control of the vehicle,
thereby causing an accident. Safety systems may also not be able to protect you or others as intended.
Always have maintenance work carried out at a qualified specialist workshop which has the necessary specialist knowledge and tools to
carry out the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this purpose.
In particular, work relevant to safety or on safety-related systems must be carried out at a qualified specialist workshop. Warning and indicator lamps in switches and buttons
Problem Possible cause/consequence Suggested solutions
One or all of the indicator lamps
in the seat heating* button are
flashing. The seat heating* has
switched itself off automatically. The on-board voltage is too low,
because too many consumers are
switched on. X
Switch off consumers that are not required, e. g. reading lamp or
interior lighting.
Once the battery is sufficiently charged, the seat ventilation* will
switch back on automatically. The indicator lamp in the
2
button on the air-conditioning */
Ther motronic* control panel

not be switched on. Cooling has been deactivated
due to a malfunction. X

Notes on changing bulbs
Bulbs and lamps are an important aspect of
vehicle safety. You must therefore make sure
that these function correctly at all times. G
Risk of injury
Bulbs and lamps can be very hot. You
should therefore allow them to cool down
before you change them. Otherwise, you
could be burned if you touch them.
Keep bulbs out of the reach of children.
Otherwise, they could damage them, for
example, and injure themselves.
Never use a bulb which has been dropped.
Such a bulb may explode and injure you.
H7 bulbs are pressurised and could explode
when you change them, particularly if they
are very hot. You should therefore wear eye
protection and gloves when you are chang-
ing them. G
Risk of injury
Xenon bulbs carry a high voltage. You could
get an electric shock and be seriously or
even fatally injured if you touch the electric
contacts on xenon bulbs. Therefore, never
remove the cover from xenon bulbs. Practical advice
