Fuses and light bulbs
198Defect light bulbs should only be replaced with light bulbs of the same type. The 
designation is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something wh ich you can do yourself, but requires to 
be done by a specialist. Other parts of  the vehicle must be removed in order to 
change the light bulbs. This applies, in  particular, to bulbs which can only be 
reached from the engine compartment.
We therefore recommend that you have any bulbs changed by a specialist garage 
or, in exceptional cases, by callin g on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area  ⇒page 162.
We recommend that you carry the set of  light bulbs with you which was delivered 
in your vehicle. Replacement light bulbs 
8) are available at specialist garages.
The set of light bulbs can be stowed in the locable box in the spare wheel.
