our v
ehicle is equipped with full-lead head-
light systems.
Full-LED headlights handle all light functions
(daylight, side light, turn signal, dipped beam
and route light) with light emitting diodes
(LEDs) as a light source.
Full-LED headlights are designed to last the
lifetime of the car and light bulbs cannot be
replaced. In case of headlight failure, go to an
authorised workshop to have it replaced.
Side turn signals
The side turn signals are LEDS and are inte-
grated in the exterior mirrors.
In case of failure, go to an authorised work-
shop to have them replaced.
Additional brake light
Taking into account that it consists of LED
bulbs, the change should be made at a tech-
nical service centre.
