Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models
as well as standard and optional equipment
of your vehicle that were available at the time
of going to print. Country-specific variations
are possible. Note that your vehicle may not
be equipped with all of the described func-
tions. This also applies to systems and func-
tions relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 26). Exterior lighting
Important safety notes
G
DANGER
Xenon bulbs carry a high voltage. You can get
an electric shock if you remove the cover of
the Xenon bulb and touch the electrical con-
tacts. There is a risk of fatal injury.
Never touch the parts or the electrical con-
tacts of the Xenon bulb. Always have work on
the Xenon bulbs carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop. G
WARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very hot
when operating. If you change a bulb, you
could burn yourself on these components.
There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before
changing a bulb.
! Make sure the bulbs are always securely
installed.
If your vehicle is equipped with Bi-Xenon
bulbs, you can recognize this by the following:
the cone of light from the Xenon bulbs moves
from the top to the bottom and back again
when you start the engine. For this to be
observed, the low-beam headlamps must be
switched on before starting the engine.
The bulbs and lamps are an essential compo-
nent of vehicle safety. You must therefore make sure that these function correctly at all
times. Have the headlamp setting checked
regularly.
R
Always switch off the vehicle's lighting sys-
tem before changing a bulb.
This will prevent a short circuit.
R Do not touch the glass tube of new bulbs
with your bare hands. Always use a clean,
lint-free cloth or only touch the base of the
bulb when installing.
Even minor contamination can burn into
the glass surface and reduce the service life
of the bulbs.
R Do not use a bulb that has been dropped or
that has scratches on its glass tube.
The bulb could may explode.
R Only use bulbs in closed lamps which have
been designed for this purpose.
R Only use spare bulbs of the same type and
with the prescribed voltage
R Protect the bulbs from moisture when in
use.
If the new bulb still does not light up, consult
a qualified specialist workshop.
R Have the LEDs and bulbs of the following
lamps changed at a qualified specialist
workshop:
-the additional turn signals in the exterior
mirrors
- the high-mounted brake lamp
- LED daytime running lamps
- the Bi-Xenon bulbs
- front fog lamps
If you require assistance changing bulbs, con-
sult a qualified specialist workshop. Lamp failure indicator
The bulb failure indicator is only an aid. You
are responsible for the proper functioning of
the vehicle lighting. Insufficient or non-func-
tioning vehicle lighting puts the operating
safety of the vehicle at risk. 92
Exterior lightingLights and windshield wipers

For this reason, check the condition and func-
tion of your vehicle's lighting system and, if
necessary, that of the trailer before each jour-
ney.
The bulb failure indicator monitors all of the
exterior lighting lamps, except the perimeter
lamp and the trailer lighting. If a bulb fails,
either the 0049(Ypage 35) indicator lamp
lights up, or you will see a corresponding
message in the display (Y page 210).
i Depending on the equipment, the bulb
failure indicator can fail for all lamps with
the exception of the turn signal lamps. Light switch

The headlamp range control is used to adapt
the downward angle of the headlamp beams
in accordance with the load on your vehicle.
The cone of light from the headlamps changes
if seats are occupied or if the cargo compart-
ment is being loaded or unloaded. This can
impair visibility and cause glare to oncoming
traffic.
You can only adjust the headlamp range while
the engine is running. Exterior lighting
