Important safety notes
GWARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very hot
when operating. If you change abulb, you
could burn yourself on these components.
There is arisk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before
changing abulb.
!Make sure the bulbs are always securely
installed.
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 settingc hecked regularly.
RAlways switch off the ignition before replacing
bulbs in the lighting system. This will prevent
as hort circuit.
RWear gloves and eye protection when chang-
ing abulb.
RDo not use abulb that has been dropped or
that has scratches on its glass tube. The bulb
could may explode.
RAb ulb could explode if:
-you touch it
-it is hot
-you drop it
-you scratchors core it
RMarks on the glass tube shorten the operating
life ofabulb. Do not touch the glass tube with
your bare hands. If necessary, clean the glass
tube when cold with alcohol or spirit. Then rub
off the glass tube with aclean, lint-free cloth.
RMake sure that bulbs are protected from
moisture when operating and that they do not
come into contact with liquids. Make sure
that seals are seated correctly and replace
damaged seals.
RCheck the contacts for signs of corrosion and
clean these if required.
ROnly operate bulbs in closed lamps which
have been designed for this purpose.
ROnly use spare bulbs of the same type, with
the prescribed voltage and the correct wat-
tage.
RIf the new bulb does not light up, consult a
qualified specialist workshop.
RHave lamps with LED bulbs repaired at aquali-
fied specialist workshop only.
RHave the bulbs of the following lamps
replaced at aqualified specialist workshop
only:
-the additional brake lamps
-the license plate lighting
-front fog lamps
-side marker lamp
Please also observe the notes on the interior
lights (
Ypage 96).
If you require assistance changing bulbs, con-
sult aqualified specialist workshop.

the rear compartment as well,use the "Syn-
chronization" function. The indicator lamp in
the 0 button comes on when the function
is switched on.
RAfter long journeys, you can use the residual
heat of the engine to heat the stationary vehi-
cle. The residual heat function can only be
switched on or off whilet he ignition is
switched off. The indicator lamp in the Ì
button comes on when the function is
switched on.
Approximatel y60minutes after parking the
vehicle,a utomatic climate control can switch on
automatically ,depending on the outsid etem-
perature. The vehicle is then ventilated for about
30 minutes at low fan setting and the automatic
climate control system is dried out.
During automatic engine switch-off, the climate control system only operates at areduced capa-
city. Further information on the automatic
engine switch-off can be found under "ECO

Information on rear-compartment air
conditioning
Vehicles with TEMPMATIC air-conditioning
system
Switch the rear-compartment air-conditioning
system on and off using the TEMPMATIC air-
conditioning system control panel. When you
switch on the rear-compartment heating, the
settings for temperature ,airflow and air distri-
bution are automatically adopted on the control
panel for the rear-compartment heating.
The indicator lamp in the /button comes on
when the rear-compartment air-conditioning is
switched on (

Vehicles with automatic climate control
To operate the rear-compartment air condition-
ing, use the control panel of the automatic cli-
mate control system. When you switch on the
rear-compartment air conditioning, you can set
the temperature and airflow separately on the
control panel .The airflow setting is automati-
cally adopted for the rear-compartment air con-
ditioning. When automatic climate control is in
à automatic mode, the air distribution of the
rear-compartment air conditioning is also auto-
matically adjusted. When you set the temperature and airflow of the
rear-compartment air conditioning, the indica-
tor lamp of the
/button (
