FUSES

Introduction

The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must
check the electrical circuit inside the fuse
for a break/melt.
Also, please be aware that using power
outlets for extended periods of time with the
engine off may result in vehicle battery
discharge.
Fuse Extracting Pliers
To replace a fuse, use the pliers hooked to
the trunk fusebox cover.
Fuse Box
Grab the pliers from the upper tabs, press
the tabs together, and extract the pliers
pulling upwards.
The pliers have two different ends, both of
which are specifically designed to remove
the different types of fuses present in the
vehicle:

After use, return the pliers to their proper
position by following the below procedures:
Grasp the pliers from the upper tabs and

insert them into their housing.
Push downward on the pliers into their

housing until they click into place.
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 mate-
rial. Do not place a fuse inside a circuit
breaker cavity or vice versa. Failure to
use proper fuses may result in serious
personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
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,
system), power unit systems (engine
system, transmission system) or steering
system blows, contact an authorized
dealer.

Fuse Location

The fuses, which can be replaced by the
user, are grouped in two boxes below the
