Fuses & Relays - Mahindra XUV 500 Owner's Manual

GENERAL
2.4 Fuses & Relays
A fuse is the most common electric protection device. A fuse is
placed in an electrical circuit, so that when current flow exceeds
the rating of the fuse it blows off.
The element in the fuse melts, opening the circuit and preventing
other components of the circuit from being damaged by the over
current. The size of the metal fuse element determines the rating.
Once a fuse blows off, it must be replaced with a new one.
Switch the ignition and all electrical equipment OFF before touching
or attempting to change a fuse.
Fit replacement fuse with the same rating as the one you have
removed.
You can identify a blown fuse by a break in the filament. All
fuses except high current fuses are a push fit. A fuse puller
should be used to remove the fuse from its position.
