Fuses
Intr
oduction
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various
electrical components. Lik
ewise, an electrical
component can be protected by several
fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the
problem has been solved. If a newly inserted
fuse blows after a short time, you must have
the electrical system checked by a special-
ised workshop as soon as possible.
WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system
can give serious el
ectrical shocks, causing
burns and even death!
●
Never touch the electrical wiring of the
ignition system.
●
Take care not to cause short circuits in
the electrical system.
WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or
bridging a current cir
cuit without fuses can
cause a fire and serious injury.
●
Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only
replace fuses with a fuse of the same am-
perage (same colour and markings) and
size
.
●
Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, sta-
ple or similar.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the vehicle's electric
syst
em, bef
ore replacing a fuse always turn
off the ignition, the lights and all electrical
elements and remove the key from the igni-
tion.

In the vehicle, there are more fuses than
