Yellow symbols are used to indicate a Priority 2 fault (warning).
Yellow symbols are accompanied by
one warning chime. The function indi-
cated should be checked as soon as possible. If several Priority 2 faults are
detected at the same time, the symbols are displayed one after the other for
about 2 seconds at a time.
Fuel level low
When this symbol
comes on for the first time, there are about 8 to 10 litres
of fuel left in the tank. You should fill up as soon as possible ⇒page 208.
Diesel particulate filter obstructed
If the symbol
lights up, you may be able to contribute towards automatic
filter cleaning by driving in the right manner. You should drive at a speed of
at least 60 km/h for about 15 minutes in 4th or 5th gear, at an engine speed
of around 2000 rpm. The increase in temperature will burn off any soot in the
filter. When cleaning is successful, the symbol switches off.
If the light on symbol
does not go off, take the vehicle to a specialist
garage to repair the fault.
For further information on the diesel particulate filter, see ⇒page 183.
WARNING
It is essential that you adjust your sp eed to suit the weather, road, terrain
and traffic conditions. The recommended driving speed must never lead to
the driver disregarding the traffic regulations.Light sensor/ rain sensor faulty
Automatic headlights / automatic wipers faulty
If the symbol appears, this means that the light sensor / rain sensor is not
working. For safety reasons, the dipp ed beam headlights will then be
switched on permanently when the light switch is set to the AUTO position.
However, you can still switch the lights on and off in the normal way with the

Some of the electrical items listed in
the table are only fitted on certain
models or are optional extras.
The electric windows and electric seat adjusters are protected by circuit
breakers. These reset automatically after a few seconds when the overload
(caused for example by frozen windows) has been corrected.
Note
Please note that the above list contains all data at the time of going to press,
so it is subject to modifications. If discrepancies should occur, please refer to
the sticker on the inside of the fuse cover for the correct information for your
model.BulbsGeneral notesYou can change the following bulbs for exterior lights yourself:•
Main headlights: all (exc ept for xenon headlights)
•
Rear lights: All bulbs
•
Bulb for side indicator The following bulbs can only be changed by a
qualified workshop:
•
Main headlights: Xenon* bulb ⇒page 256
•
Front fog lights: Bulb
As a rule, you require a certain degree of practical skill to change defective
bulbs. This applies in particular to those bulbs which are only accessible from
the engine compartment.
If in doubt, we recommend that you have defective bulbs changed by a qual-
ified workshop or qualified mechanic.
If you do decide to change bulbs in the engine compartment yourself, be
aware of the safety risks involved ⇒page 213 ⇒ in “Types of bulbs”.
Changing bulbs Halogen headlightsTypes of bulbsYou must only replace a bulb with a bu lb of the same type. The name can be
found on the base of the bulb.
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.
•
The high voltage element of gas discharge lamps* (xenon light) must
be handled correctly. Otherwise, there is a risk of death.
•
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. If not, a
short circuit could occur.
•
Switch off the lights or parking lights before you change 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 indicato rs may be temporarily misted. This has
no influence on the life expectancy 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 pr operly. This is not only in the interest
of your own safety, but also in 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, be deposited on the
reflector and impair its surface.
