̄ 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 cir-
cuit.
ț Only touch new bulbs with a clean lint-
free cloth or something similar. Do not
work with wet or greasy fingers.
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 explode
when changed. You should therefore wear
eye protection and gloves when you are
changing them.
