Full-LED headlight system*
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.
Double headlight bulb change
Changing bulbs requires a certain degree of
practical skill. If in doubt, we recommend you
have defective bulbs changed by a special-
ised service or, in case of an emergency, seek
professional assistance.
Switch off the ignition and all of the lights
●
before changing a bulb.
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
●
your bare hands. The fingerprints left on the
glass will vaporise as a result of the heat gen-
erated by the bulb, reducing bulb life and
causing condensation on the reflector sur-
face, thus reducing effectiveness.
A bulb must only be replaced by one of the
●
same type. The type is indicated on the bulb,
either on the glass part or on the base.
There is a storage area for the bulb box in
●
the spare wheel well or below the carpet in
the luggage compartment.
Fuses and bulbs
WARNING
Take particular care when working on
●
components in the engine compartment if
the engine is warm. Risk of burns.
Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
●
glass can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury.
When changing bulbs, please take care
●
not to injure yourself on sharp parts in the
headlight housing.
CAUTION
Remove the ignition key before working
●
on the electric system. Otherwise, a short
circuit could occur.
Switch off the lights and the parking light
●
before changing a bulb.
For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to
dispose of used bulbs in the proper manner.
Note
Depending on weather conditions (cold
●
or wet), the front lights, the fog lights, the
rear lights and the turn signals may be tem-
porarily misted. This has no influence on
the useful life of the lighting system. By
switching on the lights, the area through
which the beam of light is projected will
quickly be demisted. However, the edges
may continue to be misted.
Please check at regular intervals that all
●
lighting (especially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is
not only in the interest of your own safety,
but also that of all other road users.
Before changing a bulb, make sure you
●
have the correct new bulb.
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb
●
with your bare hands, use a cloth or paper
towel instead. Otherwise, the fingerprints
left on the glass will vaporise as a result of
the heat generated by the bulb, they will be
deposited on the reflector and damage its
surface.
