Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models as
well as standard and optional equipment of your
vehicle that were available at the time of going
to print. Country-specific variations are possi-
ble. Note that your vehicle may not be equipped
with all of the described functions. This also
applies to systems and functions relevant to
safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (
Ypage 27).
Exterior lighting
Important safety notes
For reasons of safety, we recommend that you
drive with the lights switched on even during the
daytime. There may be differences in operation
due to legal requirements and voluntary recom-
mendations in some countries.
Bulb failure indicator
The bulb failure indicator is only an aid. You are
responsible for the proper functioning of the
vehicle lighting. Insufficient or non-functioning
vehicle lighting puts the operating safety of the
vehicle at risk.
For this reason, check the condition and func-
tion of your vehicle's lighting system and, if nec-
essary, that of the trailer before each journey.
The bulb failure indicator monitors all of the
exterior lighting lamps, except the perimeter
lamp and the trailer lighting. If a bulb fails, either
the b(
Ypage 34) indicator lamp lights up, or
you will see a corresponding message in the
display (
Ypage 182).
iDepending on the equipment, the bulb fail-
ure indicator can fail for all lamps with the
exception of the turn signal lamps.

Headlamp range adjustment
82Exterior lighting
Lights andwindshield wiper s

The headlamp range control is used to adapt the
downward angle of the headlamp beams in
accordance with the load on your vehicle. The
cone of light from the headlamps changes if
seats are occupied or if the cargo compartmentis being loaded or unloaded. This can impair vis-
ibility and cause glare to oncoming traffic.
You can only adjust the headlamp range while
the engine is running.
XTurn headlamp range control :to the cor-
responding position. The road ahead should
be lit up for 40 mto 100 mand the low-beam
headlamps should not cause glare to oncom-
ing traffic.
Select position gif the vehicle is unladen.
Cornering lamps
The cornering lamps improve the illumination of
the road over a wide angle in the direction you
are turning, enabling better visibility in tight
bends, for example.
The cornering light function switches on
automatically, if:
Ryou are traveling at a speed of less than
25 mph (40 km/h) and you switch on a turn
signal or turn the steering wheel.
Ryou are traveling at a speeds of between
25 mph (40 km/h) and 43 mph (70 km/h) and
turn the steering wheel.
The cornering lamp may remain lit for a short
time, but is automatically switched off after no
more than 3 minutes.
iIf reverse gear is engaged the lamp on the
opposite side of the vehicle switches on
instead.
Hazard warning lamps
GWARNING
The rear exterior light will be covered if you:
Ropen the rear doors by 90°
Ropen the rear dropside.
The vehicle will then be difficult for other road users to see or will not be seen by them at all,
particularly if it is dark or visibility is poor.
There is a risk of an accident.
You should therefore ensure in this and simi-
lar situations that the vehicle is visible from
the rear in accordance with the relevant
national regulations, by using the warning tri-
angle, for instance.
Hazard warning lamp switch
XTo switch on/off: press the£hazard
warning lamp switch.
If you have indicated a turn while the hazard
warning lamps are switched on, only the turn
signal lamps on the side of the vehicle selected
will light up.
The hazard warning lamps switch on automati-
cally if:
Ran air bag is deployed.
Ryou brake sharply and bring the vehicle to a
halt from a speed of more than 45 mph
(70 km/h).
If the hazard warning lamps have been switched
on automatically, press the £hazard warn-
ing lamp switch to switch them off.
iThe hazard warning lamps work even when
the ignition is switched off.
Headlamp cleaning system
The headlamps are cleaned automatically with a
high-pressure water jet if the "Wipe with washer
fluid" function is activated (
Ypage 94) while
the low-beam headlamps are on and the engine is running.
You can find information on refilling washer fluid
in the "Maintenance and care" section
(
Ypage 220).

Changing bulbs
Important safety notes
GDANGER
Xenon bulbs carry a high voltage. You can get an electric shock if you remove the cover of
the Xenon bulb and touch the electrical con-
tacts. There is a risk of fatal injury.
Never touch the parts or the electrical con-
tacts of the Xenon bulb. Always have work on
the Xenon bulbs carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
GWARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very hot
when operating. If you change a bulb, you
could burn yourself on these components.
There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before
changing a bulb.
!Make sure the bulbs are always securely
installed.
If your vehicle is equipped with Bi-Xenon bulbs,
you can recognize this by the following: the cone
of light from the Xenon bulbs moves from the
top to the bottom and back again when you start
the engine. For this to be observed, the low-
beam headlamps must be switched on before
starting the engine.
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 setting checked regularly.
RAlways switch off the vehicle's lighting sys-
tem before changing a bulb.
This will prevent a short circuit.
RDo not touch the glass tube of new bulbs with your bare hands. Always use a clean, lint-free
cloth or only touch the base of the bulb when
installing.
Even minor contamination can burn into the
glass surface and reduce the service life of the
bulbs.
RDo not use a bulb that has been dropped or
that has scratches on its glass tube.
The bulb could explode.
ROnly use bulbs in closed lamps which have
been designed for this purpose.
ROnly use spare bulbs of the same type and
with the prescribed voltage
RProtect the bulbs from moisture when in use.
If the new bulb still does not light up, consult a
qualified specialist workshop.
RHave the LEDs and bulbs of the following
lamps changed at a qualified specialist work-
shop:
-the additional turn signals in the exterior
mirrors
-the high-mounted brake lamp
-LED daytime running lamps (Bi-Xenon
headlamps)
-Bi-Xenon lamps (Bi-Xenon headlamps)
-front fog lamps
If you require assistance changing bulbs, con-
sult a qualified specialist workshop.
