Introduction

This Owner's Manual only describes the replacement of bulbs where it is possi-

ble to replace the bulbs on your own without any complications arising. Other

bulbs or LED lights must be replaced by a specialist garage.
We recommend having bulbs replaced by a specialist garage or seeking other

expert help in the event of any uncertainties.

▶

Switch off the ignition and all of the lights before replacing a bulb.

▶

Faulty bulbs must only be replaced with the same type of bulbs. The designa-

tion is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.

We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage

after replacing a bulb in the low, high or fog beam.

WARNING

■

Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the

engine compartment 

» page 209

.

■

Accidents can be caused if the road in front of the vehicle is not suffi-

ciently illuminated and the vehicle cannot or can only be seen with difficulty

by other road users.

■

H7 and H8 bulbs are pressurised and may burst when changing the bulb -

risk of injury! We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety

glasses when changing a bulb.



237

Fuses and light bulbs

CAUTION

■

Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest

amount of dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth,

napkin, or similar.

■

The cap of the filament bulb must always be seated correctly in the head-

light, otherwise this may allow water and debris to enter the headlight - risk of

damage to the headlights.

Note

We recommend that a box of replacement bulbs always be carried in the vehi-

cle.

Introduction

The details given in the vehicle's technical documentation always take prece-

dence over the details in the Owner's Manual.
The performance values listed were determined without performance-reduc-

ing equipment, e.g. air conditioning system.
The specified values have been determined in accordance with rules and under

conditions set out by legal or technical requirements for determining opera-

tional and technical data for motor vehicles.
The listed values are for the basic model without optional equipment.

Vehicle data

Fig. 294

Type plate

The type plate 

» Fig. 294

 is located at the bottom of the B-pillar on the right-

hand driver's side.
The type plate contains the following data.

Maximum permissible gross weight
Maximum permissible towed weight (towing vehicle and trailer)

Maximum permissible front axle load
Maximum permissible rear axle load

Vehicle identification number (VIN)

The vehicle identification number - VIN (vehicle body number) is stamped on

the right hand suspension strut dome in the engine compartment. This number

is also located on a sign on the lower left hand edge below the windscreen (to-

gether with a VIN bar code), together with a nameplate.
In Infotainment, the VIN number can also be displayed in the menu 



 →  →

Service.

Engine number

The engine number is embossed in the engine block.

Maximum permissible trailer weight

The listed maximum permissible trailer weight is only valid for altitudes up to

1000 m above sea level.
The engine output falls as altitude increases, as does the ability to climb.

Therefore, for every additional 1,000 m in height (or part), the maximum per-

missible towed weight must be reduced by 10 %.
The towed weight comprises the actual weights of the (loaded) towing vehicle

and the (loaded) trailer.

WARNING

Do not exceed the specified maximum permissible weights – risk of an ac-

cident and damage.

Operating weight

This value is only a guide value and corresponds to the lowest possible operat-

ing weight without further weight-reducing equipment (e.g. spare wheel etc.).

This includes 75 kg driver's weight, the weight of the operating fluids and the

on-board tool kit and a fuel tank filled to min. 90%.

Note

If required, you can find out the precise weight of your vehicle by contacting a

specialist garage.

Payload

It is possible to calculate the approximate loading capacity from the difference

between the permissible total weight and the operating weight.
The payload consists of the following weights.

▶

The weight of the passengers.

▶

The weight of all items of luggage and other loads.

▶

The weight of the roof, including the roof rack system.

▶

The weight of the equipment that is excluded from the operating weight.
