CAUTION
● Never attempt to "repair" fuses and also do not replace them with a fuse of a
higher amperage - risk of fire! This may also cause damage at another part of the
electrical system.
● Have the electrical system checked as quickly as possible by a specialist ga-
rage if a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time.
Note
● Certain electrical components included in the fuse assignment tables are only
standard on certain vehicle model versions or only available as optional equip-
ment for certain models.
● We recommend that you always have the small box of replacement fuses in
your vehicle. You can obtain a box of replacement fuses from the range of ŠKODA
Original Parts or from a specialist garage.
