Fuses
Data on the replacement fuse must
match the data on the defective fuse.
There are two fuse boxes in the
vehicle:
● on the right of the engine
compartment, next to the battery
● behind a cover on the lower part
of the instrument panel, on the
driver's side
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition.
There are different types of fuses in
the vehicle.
Depending on the type of fuse, a
blown fuse can be recognised by its
melted wire. Do not replace the fuse
until the cause of the fault has been
remedied.
It is advisable to carry a full set of
fuses.
Some functions are protected by
several fuses. Fuses may also be
inserted without existence of a
function.
Note
Not all fuse box descriptions in this
Owner's Manual may apply to your
vehicle. Refer to the fuse box label,
where fitted.
Fuse extractor
Use a fuse extractor to remove fuses.
