or right
indicator light flashes depending on the position of the turn
signal lever. The indicator light flashes at twice its normal rate if a turn signal light fails. This does not apply when towing a trailer. Switching off the hazard warning light system
is switched on will cause all of the turn
signal lights as well as both indicator lights to flash. Further information about the turn signal system
⇒page 59.
Fog lights*
The warning light
comes on when the fog lights are operating
⇒page 56.
Main beam
The indicator light
comes on when the main beam is selected or also when the
headlight flasher is operated. Further information about the main beam
⇒page 59.

Bulb failure
The warning light
comes on if a bulb is faulty:
•
up to 2 seconds after the ignition is switched on;
•
when switching on the defective light bulb.
The following text e.g will be displayed in the information display*:
Check front right dipped beam!
The rear side lights and the licence plate lighting require several light bulbs. The indi- cator light
only lights up if all light bulbs of
the licence plate lighting or the parking
light (in one rear light unit) are defective.
Check regularly the function of the light
bulbs.Diesel particle filter*
(diesel engine)
If the warning light
comes on, this means that soot
has accumulated in the diesel
particle filter because of the frequent short distances. In order to clean the diesel particle filter, the vehicle should be driven at an even speed of at least 60 km/h at engine speeds of 1
800 - 2 500 rpm for at least 15 minutes or until
the warning light goes out with the 4th or
5th gear engaged (automatic gearbox: posi-
tion S) when the traffic situation permits it. This increases the exhaust temperature and the soot deposited in the diesel particle filter is burnt. Always pay attention to the valid speed limits
⇒
.
The warning light
goes out after the successful cleaning of the diesel particle filter.
If the filter is not properly
cleaned, the warning light
does not go out and the
warning light
begins to flash. In the in
formation display* appears
Diesel-particle
Owner's manual
. Afterwards the engine control unit shifts the engine into the emer-
gency mode, which only has a reduced power
output. After switchin
g the ignition off
and on again the warning light
comes on.
