Changing bulbs
Gener a
l

notes Read the additional information carefully

 page 63
Changing bulbs requires a certain degree of
practical skill.
If you choose to change the engine compart-
ment lamps yourself, remember that it is a
dangerous area ››› in Safety notes for work
in the en gine c
omp

artment on page 273.
Always use identical bulbs with the same
designation. The name can be found on the
base of the bulb holder. Depending on how equipped the vehicle is,
there are diff

erent sets of headlights and tail
lights:
● Halogen headlights.
● Full-LED main headlights*
● Halogen headlights with LED daytime run-
ning lights*
● Re

ar bulb light
● LED rear light*
Ful
l-LED headlight system*
Full-LED headlights handle all light functions
(daylight, side light, turn signal, dipped
beam and route light) with light emitting di-
odes (LEDs) as a light source.
Full-LED headlights are designed to last the
lifetime of the vehicle and the bulbs cannot
be replaced. In case of headlight failure, go
to an authorised workshop to have it re-
placed. WARNING
● Tak e p

articular care when working on com-
ponents in the engine compartment if the en-
gine is warm, there is a risk of burns.
● Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
glas
s can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure
yourself on sharp parts in the head-
light housing. 106

Operation
CAUTION
● When the engine i s
cold, avoid high revs
and heavy acceleration and do not make the
engine work hard. Rev counter
The rev counter indicates the number of en-
gine rev
o

lutions per minute ››› Fig. 125 1 .
Tog ether w
ith the gear-change indicator, the
rev counter offers you the possibility of using
the engine of your vehicle at a suitable
speed.
The start of the red zone on the dial indicates
the maximum engine speed which may be
used briefly when the engine is warm and af-
ter it has been run in properly. Before reach-
ing this range, you should change to a higher
gear for vehicles with a manual gearbox or for
automatic gearboxes put the selector lever in
“D” or take your foot off the accelerator ped-
al.
We recommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the
gear-change indicator. Consult the additional
information in ›››
 page 41, Gear-change
indicator. CAUTION
Never allow the rev counter needle
›› ›

Fig. 125 1 to go into the red zone on the
sc a
le for more than a very brief period, other-
wise there is a risk of engine damage. For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to save
fuel and minimi

se emissions and engine
noise. Indications on the display

Instruments and warning/control lamps
Normal temperature
If in norm
al
operations, the diodes light up
until the central zone, it means that the en-
gine has reached operating temperature. At
high outside temperatures and when making
the engine work hard, the diodes may contin-
ue lighting up and reach the upper zone. This
is no cause for concern, provided the control
lamp  does not light up on the instrument
panel digital display.
Heat range
When the diodes light up in the upper area of
the display and the control lamp appears 
on the instrument panel display, the coolant
temperature is excessive ››› page 278. CAUTION
● To en s

ure a long useful life for the engine,
avoid high revs, driving at high speed and
making the engine work hard for approxi-
mately the first 15 minutes when the engine
is cold. The phase until the engine is warm al-
so depends on the outside temperature. If
necessary, use the engine oil temperature*
›››  page 42 as a guide.
● Additional lights and other accessories in
front of
the air inlet reduce the cooling effect
of the coolant. At high outside temperatures
and high engine loads, there is a risk of the
engine overheating.
● The front spoiler also ensures proper distri-
bution of the c
ooling air when the vehicle is moving. If the spoiler is damaged this can re-
duce the c
oo

ling effect, which could cause
the engine to overheat. Seek specialist assis-
tance. Fuel level
Fig. 128
Fuel gauge. The display

only works when the
ignition is switched on. When the display rea-
ches the reserve mark, the lower diode lights
up in red and the control lamp  appears
››› page 117. When the fuel level is very low,
the lower diode flashes in red.
The fuel range is displayed on the instrument
panel ››› Fig. 125 3 .

 page 57 section. CAUTION
Never run the fuel tank completely dry. An ir-
re gu

lar fuel supply could cause misfiring. In
this way the unburned fuel can reach the ex-
haust system, which could cause the catalytic
converter to overheat resulting in damage. Warning and control lamps

Warning messages, Priority 1 (red)
If one of these faults occurs, the warning
lamp will light up or flash and will be accom-
panied by three audible warnings. This is a
danger warning. Stop the vehicle and switch
off the engine. Check the fault and correct it.
Obtain professional assistance if necessary.
If several priority 1 faults are detected at the
same time, the symbols will be displayed one
after the other for about 2 seconds at a time
and will continue until the fault is corrected.
No menus will be shown in the display for the

necessary, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put out the warning triangle to ad-
