Important safety notes

G
WARNING
If you manipulate or bridge a faulty fuse or if
you replace it with a fuse with a higher amper-
age, the electric cables could be overloaded.
This could result in a fire. There is a risk of an
accident and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with the specified
new fuses having the correct amperage.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of
the same rating, which you can recognize by
the color and value. The fuse ratings are listed
in the fuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is on the fuse box in
the cargo compartment (
If a newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified spe-
page 223).
