Do not touch the new bulb with your fin-
gers. Oil contamination will severely
shorten bulb life. If the bulb comes in
contact with any oily surface, clean the
bulb with rubbing alcohol.

FUSES

WARNING!
• When replacing a blown fuse, always use
an appropriate replacement fuse with
the same amp rating as the original fuse.
Never replace a fuse with another fuse of
higher amp rating. Never replace a
blown fuse with metal wires or any other
material. Failure to use proper fuses may
result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.

WARNING!
• Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or disen-
gaged.
• If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
• If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking sys-
tem), power unit systems (engine sys-
tem, gearbox system) or steering system
blows, contact an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
If it is necessary to wash the engine com-
partment, take care not to directly hit the
fuse box, and the windshield wiper motors
with water.

General Information

The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check
the fuse element inside the blade fuse for a
break/melt.
Also, please be aware that when using power
outlets for extended periods of time with the
engine off may result in vehicle battery dis-
charge.

Power Distribution Center (PDC)

The Power Distribution Center is located in
the engine compartment near the battery.
This center contains cartridge fuses, mini
fuses, and relays. The PDC top cover is la-
belled with each serviceable fuse/relay loca-
tion, function, and size.
NOTE:
Fuses for safety systems (marked with *)
must be serviced by an authorized dealer.
