Lamp and bulb replacement
Notes
Lamps and bulbs
Lamps and bulbs make an essential contribution
to vehicle safety.
The manufacturer of the vehicle recommends
that you entrust corresponding procedures to
the service center if you are unfamiliar with them
or they are not described here.
You can obtain a selection of replacement bulbs
at the service center.
Danger of burns
Only change bulbs when they are cool;
otherwise, there is the danger of getting
burned.◀
Working on the lighting system
When working on the lighting system, you
should always switch off the lights affected to
prevent short circuits.
To avoid possible injury or equipment damage
when replacing bulbs, observe any instructions
provided by the bulb manufacturer.◀
Do not perform work/bulb replacement on
xenon headlamps
Have any work on the xenon lighting system, in‐
cluding bulb replacement, performed only by a
service center.
Due to the high voltage present in the system,
there is the danger of fatal injuries if work is car‐
ried out improperly.◀
Do not touch the bulbs
Do not touch the glass of new bulbs with
your bare hands, as even minute amounts of
contamination will burn into the bulb's surface
and reduce its service life.
Use a clean tissue, cloth or something similar, or
hold the bulb by its base.◀
Light-emitting diodes LED
Light-emitting diodes installed behind translu‐
cent lenses serve as the light source for many of
the controls, displays and other equipment in
your vehicle.
These light-emitting diodes, which operate us‐
ing a concept similar to that applied in conven‐
tional lasers, are officially designated as Class 1
light-emitting diodes.
Do not remove the covers
Do not remove the covers, and never stare
into the unfiltered light for several hours; other‐
wise, irritation of the retina could result.◀
Headlamp glass
Condensation can form on the inside of the
headlamps in cool or humid weather. When you
drive with the lights switched on, the conden‐
sation evaporates after a short time. The head‐
lamps do not need to be changed.
If the condensation in the headlamps does not
evaporate after trips with the lights switched on,
and the amount of moisture in the headlamps
increases, for example if water droplets form,
have them checked by your service center.Seite 246MobilityReplacing components246

Removing the headlamp cover
The high beam bulbs can be replaced via the
engine compartment, and the low beam and turn
signal bulbs can be replaced via a folding cover
in the wheel arch.1High beam cover2Low beam cover3Turn signal bulb socket
To remove the covers:
▷High beams: fold out the bracket, arrow 4,
and take the cover out of the guide.▷Low beams: unscrew the cover, arrow 5.
Attach the covers carefully
When attaching the covers, proceed care‐
fully; otherwise, leaks may occur, causing dam‐
age to the headlamp system.◀
Proceed in reverse order when attaching the
covers.
Access via the wheel arch
For low beams and turn signals only:
1.Turn the wheel inward.2.Open the folding cover in the wheel arch. To
open the locks, turn them counterclockwise
all the way using a coin, for example.
Halogen headlamps
Low beams and high beams Wear protective goggles and gloves
Halogen bulbs are pressurized. Therefore,

dentally damaged during replacement.◀
The low beams and high beams have separate
covers.

Xenon headlamps
Because of the long life of these bulbs, the like‐
lihood of failure is very low. Switching the lamps

and continue the trip with great care. Comply
with local regulations.
Do not perform work/bulb replacement on
xenon headlamps
