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. 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 disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an

authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety

systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system, trans-
mission system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.
