CAUTION
"Never repair" fuses, and do not replace them with fuses of a higher amperage –
■
risk of fire! This may also cause damage at another part of the electrical system.
If a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical sys-
■
tem checked as quickly as possible by a specialist garage.
A blown fuses is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty fuse
■
with a new one of the same amperage.

We recommend always carrying replacement fuses in the vehicle. A box of re-
■
placement fuses can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
