Cockpit
82Bulb monitor

The bulb monitor checks whether the lights on the vehicle are
working.If a defective bulb is detected, or if one of the lights has failed for any reason,
the bulb monitor symbol
 will appear in the display together with an addi-
tional message (which goes out after 5 seconds). For instance, if the rear left
turn signal is not working, the display in the instrument panel will show the
following message:
Left rear turn signal
The message disappears after 5 seconds. Press the CHECK button briefly if
you wish to call up the message again.
If the display indicates that one of the lights is not working, this can have a
number of causes:
•Bulb failure ⇒page 267.•A blown fuse ⇒page 265, “Changing fuses”.•Faulty electrical wiring.
It is not necessary to have lamps replaced in a specialised workshop,
however the use of Xenon lamps is recommended.
LED lamps
If any of the LED (Light Emitting Diode) functions fail, the complete lamp
should be replaced.
The failure of the lamp is only shown when the LED function goes out
completely. Sometimes, a LED will stop working, without displaying the
warning as the function continues to operate.
WARNING
•Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The glass can break when you
touch the bulb, causing injury.•The high voltage element of gas discha rge bulbs* (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 warning buzzer signal if the set speed is

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. 200 .
– Identify the fuse corresponding to the damaged electric consumer ⇒page 266, “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 dash 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 sunroof* by
hand (if the electrical system fails).

CautionNever “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

easily by the owner.No.

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 informationYou can change the following bulbs for exterior lights yourself:•Main headlights: all bulbs (except xenon headlights)•Tail lights: all bulbs•Side turn signal bulb
The following bulbs can only be changed by a qualified workshop:•Main headlights: Xenon* bulb ⇒page 274•Front fog light bulbs
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 229 ⇒ 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 holder.
