244 Self-help, vehicle care
We recommend carrying a complete set of
fuses.
Spare fuses are kept on back of fuse box
cover at instrument panel. For opening
cover – see next page.
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition.
A defective fuse (Fig. 17259 T) can be
recognised by its melted wire. A new fuse
should only be installed after the cause of
the fault has been rectified.
There is fuse extractor on the rear of the
fuse box cover on the instrument panel for
changing fuses – see figure above.
Only fit fuses of the specified current
rating. Each fuse has its current rating
written on it, in addition the ratings are
colour coded.
