BULB CHECK [G3137503]

The bulb check feature allows an observer to perform a visual check on the operation of the exterior lights.

A bulb check on both the vehicle and connected trailer lights can be carried out via the touchscreen. Alternatively, the buttons located on the right side of the loadspace can be used.

NOTE:

The vehicle does not display any warnings for faulty trailer lights.

Before carrying out a bulb check:

  1. Switch off all of the vehicle’s lights.
  2. Apply the Electric Parking Brake (EPB).
  3. Switch off the vehicle’s ignition.

The bulb check illuminates all of the vehicle's lights and the corresponding trailer lights in turn. The sequence automatically stops after 3 minutes.

Check that each trailer light illuminates at the same time as the corresponding vehicle light when carrying out either of the operations shown below.
