In order to prevent damage to the wires and current consumers of the electrical system as a result of short circuits and overloads, individual electrical circuits are protected by fuses. State of the art fuses are used. They are equipped with blade contacts so that conventional fuses can no longer be installed in their place.
The fuses are located in the fuse box, which is located under the instrument panel on the left next to the steering wheel.
Before replacing a fuse, always switch off the relevant consumer first.
Unfasten the cover at the top and unhook it from the holders at the bottom.
A blown fuse can be recognized by melted metal plates.
Pull out the defective fuse.
Insert a new fuse with the same current rating.
If the new fuse also blows after a short time, the corresponding circuit must be checked.
Never replace the fuse with wire or other improvised means, as this may damage the electrical system.
It is recommended that you always have spare fuses in your vehicle. There are appropriate free spaces for storing them in the fuse box.
The nominal current value of the fuse is stamped on the reverse side of its holder. In addition, the holder has a color marking, which can also be used to determine the nominal value of the current, - A - fusible thread.
Attach the fuse box cover at the bottom and lock at the top.
