WARNING
High voltages in the electrical system can cause electric shocks, serious burns and death.
Never touch the electrical wiring of the ignition system.
Avoid causing short circuits in the electrical system.
WARNING
Using unsuitable or repaired fuses and bridging an electrical circuit without fuses can cause a fire and serious injuries.
Never fit fuses that have a higher fuse protection limit. Fuses must always be replaced by a new fuse with the same amp rating (same
colour and markings) and size.
Never repair a fuse.
Never use a metal strip, paper clip or similar objects to replace a fuse.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to the electrical system in the vehicle, switch the ignition, the lights and all electrical consumers off before changing a
fuse.
You can damage another position in the electrical system by using a fuse with a higher amp rating.
Fuse boxes must be protected from dirt and moisture when opened. Dirt and moisture in the fuse boxes can damage the electrical system.
This chapter does not refer to all the fuses in the vehicle. These should be changed only by a qualified workshop.
