Individual electrical circuits are protected by fuses. A blown fuse is recognisa-
ble from the melted-through metal strip » Fig. 324.
WARNINGAlways read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 252.
CAUTION
■
Replace the faulty fuse with a new one of the same amperage.■If a newly inserted fuse again blows after a short time, then seek assistance
from a specialist garage.■
“Do not repair” the fuses and do not replace them with stronger fuses -
There is a risk of fire and damage to another electrical system.
Note
■ We recommend always carrying replacement fuses in the vehicle.■There can be several power consuming devices for one fuse. Multiple fuses
may exist for a single power consuming device.278Do-it-yourself

We recommend 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.
We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage after replacing a bulb in the low, high or fog beam.
In the case of failure of a Xenon gas discharge bulb or an LED diode, visit a
specialist garage.WARNING■ Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 252.■
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.
■
Bulbs H7 H8 and H15 are pressurised and may burst when changing the
bulb - risk of injury! We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety
glasses when changing a bulb.
■
Do not carry out any work on the Xenon gas discharge lamps - risk of
death!
CAUTION
Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest
amount of dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth,
napkin, or similar.
Note
■ This Owner's Manual only describes the replacement of bulbs where it is pos-
sible to replace the bulbs on your own without any complications arising. Other
bulbs must be replaced by a specialist garage.■
We recommend that a box of replacement bulbs always be carried in the ve-
hicle.

The performance values listed were determined without performance-reduc- ing equipment, e.g. air conditioning system.
The values given have been determined in accordance with regulations and in
conditions prescribed by legal or technical provisions for determining the oper-
ating and technical data of vehicles.
The values listed are for the basic model without optional equipment.

The approved tyres and rim sizes for your vehicle are listed in the vehicle's
technical documentation (the so called COC document) and this also states the
declaration of conformity.
Rating plate
The type plate » Fig. 342 is located at the bottom of the B-pillar on the right-
hand driver's side.
The type plate contains the following data. Vehicle manufacturers
Vehicle identification number (VIN)
Maximum permissible gross weight
Maximum permissible towed weight (towing vehicle and trailer)
Maximum permissible front axle load
Maximum permissible rear axle load
Vehicle identification number (VIN)
The vehicle identification number - VIN (vehicle body number) is stamped into
the engine compartment on the right hand suspension strut dome. This num-
ber is also located on a sign on the lower left hand edge below the windscreen
(together with a VIN bar code), and on the type plate.
The VIN number can also be displayed in the Infotainment menu 

Engine number
The engine number (three-digit identifier and serial number) is stamped on the
engine block.
Supplementary Information (applies to Russia)
The full type approval number of the means of transport is indicated in the
registration documents, field 17.
Maximum permissible trailer weight
The listed maximum allowable trailer weight is only valid for altitudes up to
1000 m above sea level.
The engine output falls as the height increases, as does the ability to climb.
Therefore, for every additional 1000 m in height (or part), the maximum per-
missible towed weight must be reduced by 10%.
The towed weight is made up of the actual weights of the loaded towing vehi-
cle and the loaded trailer.
123456WARNINGDo not exceed the specified maximum permissible weights – risk of acci-
dent and damage!
Operating weight
This value is only a guide value and corresponds to the lowest possible operat-
ing weight without any equipment added that would also increase the weight
(e.g. air conditioning, emergency or spare wheel etc.). It also includes a weight
allowance for the driver (75 kg), the weight of the operating fluids, the tool kit
and a fuel tank filled to 90 % capacity.
