̄ Changing bulbs
Bulbs and lights are an important aspect
of vehicle safety. For this reason, make
sure that all bulbs are in working order at
all times.
ț Switch off the lights to avoid a short
circuit.
ț Only touch new bulbs with a clean
lint-free cloth or something similar.
Do not work with wet or greasy fin-
gers.
ț Only fit 12 V bulbs of the same type
as before and of the correct wattage.
ț Have the headlamp setting checked
regularly.
ț If the newly installed bulb does not
light up either, visit an authorized
Sprinter Dealer.
ț Have the following LEDs and bulbs
changed at an authorized Sprinter
Dealer:
ț The additional turn signals in the
exterior mirrors
ț The third brake lamp (cargo and
passenger vans only)*
ț The bi-xenon headlamps*
ț The foglamps*
Before changing bulbs
Warning
G
Bulbs and bulb holders can become very
hot. For this reason, allow the light to cool
down before changing the bulb.
Keep bulbs out of the reach of children.
Never use a bulb which has been dropped.
Such a bulb may explode and injure you.
H7 bulbs are pressurized and may ex-
plode when changed. You should there-
fore wear eye protection and gloves when
you are changing them.
