Emergencies
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle
and take care to avoid jerking the tow rope.
When towing on an unpaved road, there is al-
ways a risk of overloading and damaging the
anchorage points. WARNING
If the vehicle has no electrical power, the
brake lights, turn signals and all other lights
will no longer function. Do not have the vehi-
cle towed away. Failure to follow this instruc-
tion could result in an accident. CAUTION
If there is no oil in the gearbox or no lubricant
in the automatic transmission the car may
only be towed with the driven wheels lifted
clear of the road, or transported on a special
car transporter or trailer. Note
● Please observe related legal requirements.
● Switch on the hazard warning lights of both
vehicles. However, observe any regulations
to the contrary.
● The tow rope must not be twisted. Other-
wise the front towline anchorage could be
pulled off the vehicle. Towline anchorage at the front of the
vehicle

There is a cover with an opening into which
the towline anchorage is screwed on the right
part of the front bumper.
– To remove the bumper cover, just press the
upper left side inwards.
– Take the towline anchorage out of the vehi-
cle tool kit ››› page 220 .

connection as far as it will go ››› Fig. 191
and tighten with the wheel brace.
After use, unscrew the towline anchorage
and fit the cover back on the bumper. Put the
towline anchorage back in the vehicle tool kit. The towline anchorage should always be
kept in the vehicle.

Full-LED headlight system*
Full-LED headlights handle all light functions
(daylight, side light, turn signal, dipped
beam and route light) with light emitting di-
odes (LEDs) as a light source.
Full-LED headlights are designed to last the
lifetime of the car and light bulbs cannot be
replaced. In case of headlight failure, go to
an authorised workshop to have it replaced.

● Take particular care when working on com-
ponents in the engine compartment if the en-
gine is warm. Risk of burns.
● Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
glass can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure yourself on sharp edges, in particu-
lar on the headlight housing. CAUTION
● Remove the ignition key before working on
the electric system. Otherwise, a short circuit
could occur. ●
Switch off the lights and the parking light
before changing a bulb.
● Take good care to avoid damaging any com-
ponents. For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to dis-
pose of used bulbs in the proper manner. Note
● Please check at regular intervals that all
lighting (especially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is
not only in the interest of your own safety,
but also that of all other road users.
● Before changing a bulb, make sure you
have the correct new bulb.
● Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
your bare hands, use a cloth or paper towel
instead, since the fingerprints left on the
glass will vaporise as a result of the heat gen-
erated by the bulb, they will be deposited on
the reflector and will impair its surface. 234
