Fuses
Data on the replacement fuse must match
the data on the defective fuse.
There are three fuse boxes in the vehicle:
z front left, in the engine compartment,
z in the interior behind the light switch, or,
in right-hand drive cars, behind the
glove compartment,
z on the left of the luggage compartment,
behind a cover.
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition.
A blown fuse can be recognised by its
melted wire. Do not replace the fuse until
the cause of the fault has been remedied.
Only fit fuses of the specified current
rating. Each fuse has its current rating
written on it, the ratings are also colour
coded.
