Cockpit
82If the display indicates that one of the lights is not working, this can have a
number of causes:•Bulb failure ⇒page 264.•A “blown” fuse ⇒ page 262, “Changing fuses”.•Faulty electrical wiring.
Have the components replaced or the wiring repaired as necessary by a
specialist garage.WARNING
•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.
Speed warning

Introduction
The speed warning function can help prevent you exceeding
a particular pre-set maximum speed.The speed warning function will warn the driver if a pre-set maximum speed
is exceeded. The system gives an audible warning signal if the set speed is
exceeded by about 10 km/h. A warning symbol will also appear in the display
⇒ fig. 56.
The speed warning function has two different warning speeds, which operate
independently and serve slig htly different purposes:
Speed limit warning 1

With speed limit warning 1, the maximum speed can be changed while
driving. The speed limit that has been set remains stored until the ignition is
switched off, or until it is changed or cleared.

kit) at the rear of the glass cover on the interior light ⇒page 114,
fig. 83 .
– Carefully lever off the glass cover.
– Take the crank handle from its mounting on the inside of the fuse box cover ⇒ page 262.
– Insert the crank handle all the way into the hexagonal socket ⇒ page 114, fig. 84.
– Hold the crank handle in position and turn it to close the sun roof.
– Reinstall the glass cover: insert the plastic lugs first and then press the cover upwards.
– Have the fault repaired.
NoteYou can use the screwdriver handle to make it easier to turn the crank. Detach
the handle from the screwdriver and then fit the handle onto the crank.

Note•Do not use the compressor for longer than 6 minutes. Otherwise, it might
overheat. When the compressor has cooled down, you can use it again.•If tyre sealant should leak out, leave it to dry and then pull it off like foil.•After carrying out a tyre repair remember to buy a new tyre sealant can at
a qualified workshop. This will ensure that the Tyre Mobility System is opera-
tive again.•Please observe legal requirements when doing so.FusesChanging fuses
If a fuse has blown, it must be replaced.
– Switch off the ignition and its failed electrical component.
– Remove the fuse cover using a screwdriver ⇒fig. 202 .
– Identify the fuse for the failed component ⇒ page 263, “Fuse
assignment”.
– Take the plastic clip from inside the fuse cover, fit it onto the blown fuse, and pull the fuse out.
– Replace the blown fuse (which will have a melted metal strip) with a new fuse of the same amp rating.
–Fit the fuse cover back on.The individual electrical circuits are protected by fuses. The fuses are located
behind a cover at the left-hand end of the instrument panel.
Two spare fuses and a sticker identifying the fuses are provided on the inside
of the fuse cover. There is also a crank handle for operating the sun roof* by
hand (if the electrical system fails).

Caution
Never “repair” damaged fuses and never replace them with fuses with a
higher rating. Failure to comply could result in fire. It could also cause
damage to other parts of the electrical system.
Note
If a newly replaced fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical system
must be checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.Fuse assignment
This list shows the fuses which can be replaced relatively
easily by the owner.No.

If and when
264Some 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 (except for xenon headlights)•Rear lights: All bulbs•Side indicator bulb
The following bulbs can only be changed by a qualified workshop:•Main headlights: Xenon* bulb ⇒page 271•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 227 ⇒ in “Types of bulbs”.Changing bulbs Halogen headlightsTypes of bulbsYou must only replace a bulb with a bulb of the same type. The name can be
found on the base of the bulb.
