Replacing bulbs
The front and rear light clusters of your
vehicle are equipped with LED light bulbs. Do
not replace the bulbs yourself. Contact a
qualified specialist workshop which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools to
carry out the work required.
Lamps are an important aspect of vehicle
safety. You must therefore make sure that
these function correctly at all times. Have the
headlamp setting checked regularly. Windshield wipers
Switching the windshield wipers on/
off
! Do not operate the windshield wipers
when the windshield is dry, as this could
damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dust
that has collected on the windshield can
scratch the glass if wiping takes place when
the windshield is dry.
If it is necessary to switch on the windshield
wipers in dry weather conditions, always
use washer fluid when operating the
windshield wipers.
! If the windshield wipers leave smears on
the windshield after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, wax or
other residues may be the reason for this.
Clean the windshield using washer fluid
after washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash.
! Vehicles with a rain sensor: if the
windshield becomes dirty in dry weather
conditions, the windshield wipers may be
activated inadvertently. This could then
damage the windshield wiper blades or
scratch the windshield.
For this reason, you should always switch
off the windshield wipers in dry weather. 0047
003F Windshield wiper off
0048 0062 Intermittent wipe, low (rain sensor
set to low sensitivity)
0049 0063 Intermittent wipe, high (rain sensor
set to high sensitivity)
004A 00AA Continuous wipe, slow
004B 00A9 Continuous wipe, fast
0084 00D3 Single wipe/00D4 To wipe the
windshield using washer fluid
X Switch on the power supply with the Start/
Stop button or the SmartKey
(Y page 171).
X Turn the combination switch to the
corresponding position.
In the 0062or0063 position, the appropriate
wiping frequency is set automatically
according to the intensity of the rain. In
the 0063 position, the rain sensor is more
sensitive than in the 0062position, causing
the windshield wipers to wipe more
frequently.
i Vehicles with MAGIC VISION CONTROL:
the washer fluid is fed through the wiper
blades and when wiping with washer fluid
00D4 the washer fluid is emitted directly
from the blades.
If the wiper blades are worn, the windshield
will no longer be wiped properly. This could
prevent you from observing the traffic
conditions. 146
