The driving data is displayed on the multifunction display.
The multifunction display only operates if the ignition is switched on. After the ignition is switched on, the function that was last selected before switching
off the ignition is displayed.WARNING■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for the operation of your vehicle.■
Even at temperatures of around +4 °C, black ice may still be on the road
surface! You should therefore not only rely on the outside temperature dis-
play for accurate information as to whether there is ice on the road.
Note
In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of
measures.

cal system.■
A blown fuses is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty
fuse with a new one of the same amperage.
■
If a newly inserted fuse burns through again, then a specialist should be con-
sulted immediately.

Some manual skills are required to change a bulb. For this reason, we recom-
mend having bulbs replaced by a specialist garage or seeking other expert help
in the event of any uncertainties.
› Switch off the ignition and all of the lights before replacing a bulb.
› Faulty bulbs must only be replaced with the same type of bulbs. The designa-
tion is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
› A stowage compartment for replacement bulbs is located in a plastic box in
the spare wheel or underneath the floor covering in the luggage compart-
ment.
WARNING■ Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 107.■
Accidents can be caused if the road in front of the vehicle is not suffi-
ciently illuminated and the vehicle cannot or can only be seen with difficul-
ty by other road users.
■
The H4 bulb is pressurised and may explode during a bulb replacement -
risk of injury! We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety
glasses when changing a bulb.
■
Switch off the respective vehicle light when changing the bulb.
