Replacing bulbs
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very hot
when operating. If you change a bulb, you
could burn yourself on these components.
There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before
changing a bulb.
!Make sure the bulbs are always securely
installed.
The bulbs and lamps are an essential compo-
nent of vehicle safety. You must therefore make
sure that these function correctly at all times.
Have the headlamp setting checked regularly.
RAlways switch off the ignition before replacing bulbs in the lighting system. This will prevent
a short circuit.
RWear gloves and eye protection when chang-
ing a bulb.
RDo not use a bulb that has been dropped or
that has scratches on its glass tube. The bulb
could may explode.
RA bulb could explode if:
-you touch it
-it is hot
-you drop it
-you scratch or score it
RMarks on the glass tube shorten the operating
life of a bulb. Do not touch the glass tube with
your bare hands. If necessary, clean the glass
tube when cold with alcohol or spirit. Then rub
off the glass tube with a clean, lint-free cloth.
RMake sure that bulbs are protected from
moisture when operating and that they do not
come into contact with liquids. Make sure
that seals are seated correctly and replace
damaged seals.
RCheck the contacts for signs of corrosion and
clean these if required.
ROnly operate bulbs in closed lamps which
have been designed for this purpose.
ROnly use spare bulbs of the same type, with
the prescribed voltage and the correct wat-
tage.
RIf the new bulb does not light up, consult a
qualified specialist workshop.
RHave lamps with LED bulbs repaired at a quali- fied specialist workshop only.
RHave the bulbs of the following lamps
replaced at a qualified specialist workshop
only:
-the additional brake lamps
-the license plate lighting
-Front fog lamps
-side marker lamp
Please also observe the notes on the interior
lights (
Ypage 100).
If you require assistance changing bulbs, con-
sult a qualified specialist workshop.

RIf you wish to use the driver's side settings on
the front-passenger side and, for vehicles
with rear-compartment air conditioning, for
the rear compartment as well, use the "Syn-
chronization" function. The indicator lamp in
the0 button comes on when the function
is switched on.
RAfter long journeys, you can use the residual
heat of the engine to heat the stationary vehi-
cle. The residual heat utilization can only be
switched on or off while the ignition is
switched off. The indicator lamp in the Ì
button comes on when the function is
switched on.
Approximately 60 minutes after parking the
vehicle, dual-zone automatic climate control
can switch on automatically, depending on the
outside temperature. The vehicle is then venti-
lated for about 30 minutes at low fan setting and
dual-zone automatic climate control is dried out.
During automatic engine switch-off, the climate
control system only operates at a reduced capa-
city. Further information on the automatic
engine switch-off can be found under "ECO
start/stop function" (
Ypage 125).
Optimum use of rear-compartment air
conditioning
Vehicles with air-conditioning system
Switch the rear-compartment air-conditioning
system on and off using the air-conditioning sys-
tem control panel. When you switch on the rear-
compartment air conditioning, your settings for
temperature, airflow and air distribution are
automatically adopted on the control panel for
the rear-compartment air conditioning.
The indicator lamp in the /button comes on
when the rear-compartment air-conditioning is
switched on (
Ypage 111).
Vehicles with dual-zone automatic climate
control
To operate the rear-compartment air condition-
ing, use the control panel of the dual-zone auto-
matic climate control system. When you switch
on the rear-compartment air conditioning, you
can set the temperature and airflow separately
on the control panel. The airflow setting is auto-
matically adopted for the rear-compartment air
conditioning. When dual-zone automatic cli-
mate control is in Ãautomatic mode, the air
distribution of the rear-compartment air condi-
tioning is also automatically adjusted. When you set the temperature and airflow of the
rear-compartment air conditioning, the indica-
tor lamp of the
/button (
Ypage 112)
flashes. When the rear-compartment air condi-
tioning is switched on, the indicator lamp on
the / button lights up.
For optimum climate control, set the tempera-
ture to 72 ‡ (22 †) and switch on Ãauto-
matic mode. Only change the temperature in
small increments.

Important safety notes
When the climate control is switched off, air
intake and air circulation also stop. Only use this
setting for a brief period. Otherwise, the win-
dows could fog up.

Regulating climate control automati-
cally
General notes
When dual-zone automatic climate control is in
automatic mode, the set temperature is auto-
matically kept constant. The system automati-
cally regulates the temperature of the dis-
pensed air, the airflow and the air distribution.
Automatic mode will achieve optimal operation
if the cooling with air dehumidification function
is also activated. If desired, the cooling with air
dehumidification function can be deactivated
(
Ypage 114).
Dual-zone automatic climate control
Automatic mode for automatic climate control
settings can only be activated or deactivated on
the first menu level. If you do not set a new value
for the rear-compartment climate control in the second menu level within approx. ten seconds,
the control panel display goes back to the first
menu level.
XSwitch on climate control (Ypage 113).
XSet temperature for the driver's and front-
passenger side and, for vehicles with rear-
compartment air conditioning, for the rear
compartment, too (
Ypage 115).
XTo switch automatic mode on or off: press
the à button.
If the indicator lamp in the Ãbutton lights
up, automatic mode is activated. The airflow
and air distribution are controlled automati-
cally and the windshield defrosting function is
deactivated.
If you deactivate automatic mode, the auto-
matic climate control system saves the current
settings.
In automatic mode, if you adjust the airflow or
air distribution manually, the indicator lamp
above the Ãbutton goes out. The function
which has not been changed manually, however,
continues to be controlled automatically.
Setting the temperature

When doing so, only change the temperature
in small increments, and start in the center
position or at 72 ‡ (22 †) (
Ypage 111).
Dual-zone automatic climate control
You can set the temperature separately for the
driver's and front-passenger side. In vehicles
with rear-compartment air conditioning, the
temperature for the rear can be set additionally.
Each set temperature is automatically main-
tained at a constant level.
