model and equipment, it is not possible for
you to change LED light units or individual
LEDs yourself. F
ailure of individual LEDs
can be an indication that other LEDs may
fail. In this case, have the lights checked by
a suitably qualified workshop and replaced
if necessary.
A box with the replacement bulbs necessa-
ry for trac safety should always be carried
in the vehicle. Replacement bulbs are avail-
able from a suitably qualified workshop. In
some countries it is a legal requirement to
carry these replacement bulbs.
Driving with failed exterior lighting bulbs
may be against the law.
Additional bulb specication
Some bulbs in the headlight or tail light
clusters may have certain factory specifica-
tions that deviate from conventional bulbs.
The designation is inscribed on the bulb, ei-
ther on the glass part or on the base.
WARNING
Accidents can be caused if the road is not
suciently illumina
ted and if other road
users have diculty seeing the vehicle, or
cannot see it at all.
WARNING
Accidents and serious injuries can be
caused if bulbs are not changed correctly.
·
Always read and observe the warnings
before performing any work in the en-
gine compartment page 312. The en-
gine compartment of any vehicle is
a dangerous area. Serious injuries can
be sustained here.
·
Please note that halogen bulbs are
pressurised and can burst when a bulb
is changed.
·
Change the bulb in question only when
it has cooled down fully.
·
Never change bulbs unless you know
exactly how to do it. If you are uncertain
of what to do, have the work carried out
by a suitably qualified workshop.
·
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb
with your bare fingers. Fingerprints le
on the bulb will evaporate due to heat
when the bulb is switched on and will
c
ause the reflector to become “blind”.
·
There are sharp-edged parts on the
headlight housing and on the housing
of the tail light cluster. Protect your
hands when changing bulbs.
NOTICE
If the rubber cover or plastic covers on the
hea
dlight housing are not fitted correctly
aer changing a bulb, this can result in
damage to the electrical system – above
all due to ingress of water.

of the chapt
er on page 295.

bulbs with the same designation. The
designation is inscribed on the bulb, ei-
ther on the glass part or on the base.
