Changing a bulb
Changing bulbs requires a certain degree of practical skill. If you choose to change engine compartment lamps yourself, remember
that it is a dangerous area ⇒ 
in Working on components in the engine
compartment on page 209.
Always use identical bulbs with the same designation. The name can be
found on the base of the bulb holder.
Depending on how equipped the vehicle is, there are different sets of head-
lights and tail lights:
● Halogen headlights
● Full-LED main headlights*
● Rear bulb light
● LED rear light* Full-LED headlight system*
Full-LED headlights handle all light functions (daylight, side light, turn sig-
nal, dipped beam and route light) with light emitting diodes (LEDs) as a
light source.
Full-LED headlights are designed to last the lifetime of the car and light
bulbs cannot be replaced. In case of headlight failure, go to an authorised
workshop to have it replaced.
