Changing bulbs

Important safety notes

Xenon bulbs

If your vehicle is equipped with Xenon bulbs,

you can recognize this by the following: the

cone of light from the Xenon bulbs moves

from the top to the bottom and back again

when you start the engine. For this to be

observed, the lights must be switched on

before starting the engine.

G

Warning

Xenon bulbs carry a high voltage. You could

get an electric shock and be seriously or even

fatally injured if you touch the electric

contacts on Xenon bulbs. Therefore, never

remove the cover from Xenon bulbs.

Do not change Xenon bulbs yourself, but have

them replaced at a qualified specialist

workshop which has the necessary specialist

knowledge and tools to carry out the work

required.

Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use an

authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for this

purpose. In particular, work relevant to safety

or on safety-related systems must be carried

out at a qualified specialist workshop.

Bulbs 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.

Other bulbs

G

Warning!

Bulbs and lamps can be very hot. You should

therefore allow them to cool down before you

change them. Otherwise, you could be burned

if you touch them.

Keep bulbs out of the reach of children.

Otherwise, they could damage the bulbs, for

example, and injure themselves.
