38 WARNING
● Failure to observe control lamps and warn-
ing messages can result in serious personal
injuries or damage to your vehicle.
● The engine compartment is a dangerous
area. Carrying out work in the engine com- partment, i.e. checking and filling service liq-
uids, can lead to injury, scalding, burns and
fires. Therefore the corresponding warnings
must always be observed
››› page 132, En-
gine compartment. Handbrake
If the
warning lamp lights up, the hand-
br ak
e is applied. Additionally, driving the ve-
hicle at speeds exceeding 6 km/h (4 mph) for
at least 3 seconds produces an audible warn-
ing.
The informative display indicates:
Release the handbrake!
Brake system The warning lamp
illuminates if the brake
fluid level is too low or if there is a fault in the
ABS system.
The informative display indicates:

fog light is switched on ››› page 64.
Bulb fault The control lamp
lights up when there is a
fault in a bulb:
● for several seconds after switching on the
ignition,
● When connecting a faulty bulb
This is indicated on the informative display,
e.g.: Check the front right dipped beam headlight! Note
The rear side lights and number plate light
contain several bulbs. The control lamp
lights up only when there is a fault in all the
number plate bulbs or side light bulbs (of a
combined tail light). Therefore it is advisable
to regularly check the bulb operation. Emission control system
If the warning lamp
is lit up, there is a
fault in the emission system. The engine con-
trol unit allows driving to continue in an
emergency program.
Go to a technical service.
Preheating (diesel engines) When you switch on the ignition, the warning
lamp lights up. The engine can be started
straight away when the lamp switches off.
If the
warning lamp
does not illuminate or
if it
does not switch off , there is a fault in the
glow plug system.
If the warning lamp starts to flash
while
driving, there is a fault in the engine power
control electronic system. The engine control
unit allows driving to continue in an emer-
gency program.
Go to a technical service.
Engine management system
(petrol engines) If the
warning lamp is illuminated, there is
a fault in the engine management system.
The engine control unit allows driving to con-
tinue in an emergency program.

Advice
● Replace the cover again or close the fuse
box lid. CAUTION
If you replace a fuse with higher-rating fuse,
you could cause damage to another part of
the electrical system. Changing bulbs
Introduction Changing bulbs requires a certain degree of
practical skill. If in doubt, we recommend you
have defective bulbs changed by a special-
ised service or, in case of an emergency,
seek professional assistance.
●
Switch off the ignition and all of the lights
before changing a bulb.
● Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
your bare hands. The fingerprints left on the
glass will vaporise as a result of the heat gen-
erated by the bulb, reducing bulb life and
causing condensation on the reflector sur-
face, thus reducing effectiveness.
● A bulb must only be replaced by one of the
same type. The type is indicated on the bulb,
either on the glass part or on the base.
● There is a storage area for the bulb box in
the spare wheel well or below the carpet in
the luggage compartment. The light source used for each function is lis-
ted below:
Double headlights
H7 Long Life

W5W Long Life PY21W NA P21W Super Long Life WARNING
● 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.
● The high voltage element of gas discharge
bulbs* (xenon light) must be handled correct-
ly. Otherwise, there is a risk of death.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure yourself on sharp parts in the head-
light 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. Dipped beam:
Main beam:
Side lights:
Turn signals:
Daytime driving lights: For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to dis-
pose of used bulbs in the proper manner. Note
● Depending on weather conditions (cold or
wet), the front lights, the fog lights, the rear
lights and the turn signals may be temporari-
ly misted. This has no influence on the useful
life of the lighting system. By switching on
the lights, the area through which the beam
of light is projected will quickly be demisted.
However, the edges may continue to be mis-
ted.
● 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. Otherwise, the fingerprints left on
the glass will vaporise as a result of the heat
generated by the bulb, they will be deposited
on the reflector and damage its surface. 166
