Important safety notes

WARNING

Adaptive Highbeam Assist does not recognise

road users:

who have no lights, e.g. pedestrians

who have poor lighting, e.g. cyclists

whose lighting is blocked, e.g. by a barrier

On very rare occasions, Adaptive Highbeam

Assist may fail to recognise other road users

that have lights, or may recognise them too

late. In this, or in similar situations, the auto-

matic main-beam headlamps will not be deac-

tivated or will be activated despite the pres-

ence of other road users. There is a risk of an

accident.

Always carefully observe the traffic conditions

and switch off the main-beam headlamps in

good time.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist cannot take into

account road, weather or traffic conditions.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist is only an aid. You are

responsible for adjusting the vehicle's lighting

to the prevailing light, visibility and traffic con-

ditions.

In particular, the detection of obstacles can be

restricted if there is:

poor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or

snow

dirt on the sensors or if the sensors are

obscured

ing may be set via the multimedia system (see

the separate operating instructions).

Replacing bulbs

Important safety notes

WARNING

Bulbs, lamps and plug connectors can

become very hot during use. When replacing a

bulb, you could burn yourself on these com-

ponents. There is a risk of injury.

Allow these components to cool down before

replacing the bulb.

Do not use a bulb if it has been dropped or if its

glass tube has been scratched.

The bulb may explode if:

you touch it

it is hot

you drop it

you scratch it

Use bulbs only in closed lamps that have been

designed for this purpose. Fit only spare bulbs of

the same type and the specified voltage.

Marks on the glass tube reduce the service life

of the bulb. Do not touch the glass tube with

your bare hands. If necessary, clean the glass

tube when cold with alcohol or spirit and rub it

off with a lint-free cloth.

Protect bulbs from moisture during operation.

Do not allow bulbs to come into contact with

liquids.

Replace only the bulbs listed (Y page 112).

Have the bulbs that you cannot change yourself

replaced at a qualified specialist workshop.

If you require assistance replacing bulbs, con-

sult a qualified specialist workshop.

If the new bulb does not light up either, consult

a qualified specialist workshop.

Headlamps and lamps are an important aspect

of vehicle safety. You must therefore make sure

that these function correctly at all times. Have

the headlamp setting checked regularly.

Vehicles with LED headlamps: the light clus-

ters of your vehicle are equipped with LED light

bulbs. Do not replace your vehicle's bulbs your-

self. Contact a qualified specialist workshop

with the necessary specialist knowledge and

tools to carry out the work required.
