Before changing any bulb, first turn off the
failed device. Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
your bare h

ands. The fingerprints left on the
glass will vaporise as a result of the heat gen-
erated by the bulb, reducing bulb life and
causing condensation on the reflector sur-
face, thus reducing effectiveness.
A bulb must only be replaced by one of the
same type. The type is indicated on the bulb,
either on the glass part or on the base.
Xenon headlights
With this type of headlight, the user can re-
place the turn signal bulb. Replacement of
the dipped/main beam bulb must be done by
Technical Services, given that complex ele-
ments must be removed from the vehicle and
the automatic control system that incorpo-
rates it must be reset.
The Xenon bulbs discharge 2.5 times the
light flux and have an average lifespan of 5
times more than that of halogen bulbs, this
means that, except due to unusual circum-
stances, there is no need to change the bulbs
for the whole life of the vehicle. WARNING
● Take p ar

ticular care when working on com-
ponents in the engine compartment if the en-
gine is warm, there is a risk of burns.
● Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
glass
can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury. » 83

Emergencies
●
The high vo lt
age element of gas discharge
bulbs* (xenon light) must be handled correct-
ly. Otherwise, there is a risk of death.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure y
ourself on sharp parts in the head-
light housing. CAUTION
● Remov e the ignition k

ey before working on
the electric system. Otherwise, a short circuit
could occur.
● Switch off the lights or parking lights be-
fore y
ou change a bulb. For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to dis-
pose of u sed b

ulbs in the proper manner. Note
● Depending on w e

ather conditions (cold or
wet), the front lights, the fog lights, the tail
lights and the turn signals may be temporari-
ly misted. This has no influence on the useful
life 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 mis-
ted.
● Please check at regular intervals that all
lighting (espec
ially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is not only in the interest of your own safety,
but a
l

so that of all other road users.
● Before changing a bulb, make sure you
have the corr
ect new bulb.
● Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
your bare h
ands, use a cloth or paper towel
instead. The residue left by the fingerprints
would vaporise as a result of the heat gener-
ated by the bulb, they will be deposited on
the reflector and will impair its surface. Single headlight bulb change

trol lamp flashes at double speed. If the
trailer turn signal bulbs are defective, the
control lamp  does not light up. Change the
bulb.
● The main beam headlight
s can only be
switched on if the dipped beam headlights
are already on. The warning lamp  then
comes on in the instrument panel.
● The headlight flasher comes
on for as long
as you pull the lever – even if no other lights
are switched on. The warning lamp  then
comes on in the instrument panel.
● When the parking light
s are switched on,
the headlight and the tail light on the corre-
sponding side of the vehicle light up. The
parking lights will only work if the key is re-
moved from the ignition. If said light is on, an
audible warning will be emitted while the
driver door is open.
● If the turn signal lever is left on after the
key ha
s been taken out of the ignition lock,
an acoustic signal sounds when the driver
door is opened. This is intended as a remind-
er to switch off the turn signal, unless you
wish to leave the parking light on. Coming Home/Leaving Home Func-
tion*
The Coming Home function is controlled man-
ually.
The L

eaving Home function is control-
led with a photosensor.
If the Coming Home or Leaving Home func-
tion is connected, the front side and dipped
lights, the tail lights and the number plate
light will light up to provide assistance.
Coming home function
The Coming Home function is activated by
switching off the ignition and briefly flashing
the lights. When the driver door is opened,
the Coming Home lighting comes on. If the
driver door is already open when the lights
are flashed briefly, the Coming Home lighting
comes on immediately.
When the last door of the vehicle or the rear
lid is closed, the Coming Home function
starts and the switching off the headlights is
delayed.
The Coming Home lighting switches off in the
following cases:
● On completion of the time period establish-
ed for the dela y

in switching off the lights af-
ter all the vehicle doors and the rear lid have
been closed.
● If, 30 seconds after being connected, any
doors or the re
ar lid remain open. ●
If the light swit
ch is turned to position .
● If the ignition is switched on.
Automatic L
eaving Home function
The Leaving Home function is activated when
the vehicle is unlocked if:
● the light control is in position  and
● the photo

sensor detects “darkness”.
The Leavin
g Home lighting switches off in the
following cases:
● If the time period for the delay in switching
off the headlights
has ended
● If the vehicle is locked again.
● If the light switch is turned to position .
● If the ignition is switched on.
Manual L
eaving Home function
In vehicles without an automatic headlight
system (light sensor), if the manual Coming
Home function is activated when leaving the
car, upon returning to the car and unlocking
it the manual Leaving Home function will be
activated automatically. Note
● To activat e the C

oming/Leaving home func-
tion, the rotary light switch must be in posi-
tion  and the light sensor must detect
darkness. » 121

Lights and visibility
The instrument lighting (needles) is switched
on when the ignition i s
on and the light i
s
off. The instrument lighting is dimmed auto-
matically as the daylight starts to fade. It
goes out completely when ambient light is
very low. This function is intended to remind
the driver to switch on the dipped beam
headlights in good time when light condi-
tions become poor.
Headlight range control
By using the electrical headlight range con-
trol you can adjust the headlight range to the
load level that is being carried in the vehicle
››› Fig. 135. This way, it is possible to avoid
dazzling oncoming traffic more than necessa-
ry. At the same time, by using the correct
headlight settings, the driver has the best
possible lighting for the road ahead.
The headlights can only be adjusted when
the dipped beam is switched on. Turn the
wheel downwards to lower the headlight
beam from the basic setting 0.
Dynamic headlight range control
Vehicles with gas discharge bulbs (xenon
bulbs) are equipped with dynamic headlight
range control. When you switch on the lights,
their range regulates itself according to the
vehicle load.
Vehicles with gas discharge bulbs do not
have headlight range control. Hazard warning lights
 Read the additional information carefully
