Lamps
104
The button for the interior lamps in the rear
passenger area only switches these lamps
on and off.
The interior lamps come on briefly
whenever you use the parked-car
ventilation system. This feature confirms
that the system has been activated.<
Control of the footwell lamps, courtesy
lamps and ground lamps is also automatic.
Reading lamps
Reading lamps are provided in the front
and rear
* adjacent to the interior lamps.
You can switch them on and off with the
button 2 adjacent to each lamp.
To avoid discharging the battery, all of
the vehicle's interior lamps are auto-
matically extinguished approx. 15 minutes
after the ignition is switched off.<
Light-emitting diodes, LEDs
Light-emitting diodes installed behind
translucent lenses serve as the light source
for many of the controls and displays in
your vehicle. These light-emitting diodes,
which operate using a concept similar to
that applied in conventional lasers, are offi-
cially designated as Class 1 light-emitting
diodes.
Do not remove the covers, and never
stare into the unfiltered light several
hours, as irritation of the iris could result. <
