Fuses
Introduction
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various electrical components. Likewise, an electrical component can be protected by several fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the problem has been solved. If a newly inserted fuse blows after a short time, you must have the electrical system checked by a specialised workshop as soon as possible.
WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system can give serious electrical shocks, causing burns and even death!
- Never touch the electrical wiring of the ig- nition system.
- Take care not to cause short circuits in the electrical system.
WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or bridging a current circuit without fuses can cause a fire and serious injury.
- Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only replace fuses with a fuse of the same amper-age (same colour and markings) and size.
- Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, sta-ple or similar.
NOTICE
- To prevent damage to the vehicle’s electri-cal system, before replacing a fuse always turn off the ignition, the lights and all electri-cal elements.
- Protect the fuse boxes when open to pre-vent the entry of dust or humidity as they can damage the electrical system.
Note
In the vehicle, there are more fuses than those indicated in this chapter. These should only be replaced by a specialist workshop.
Fuses inside the vehicle
Vehicles with the steering wheel on the left: open the fuse box cover under the dash panel
- Open: fold the cover down.
- Close: push back the cover it in until it clicks into place.
Right-hand drive vehicles: open the fuse box behind the glove compartment
- Open the glove compartment and, if neces-sary, empty it.
- Undo the opening limiter steps: first, unlock the limiter by pulling back on in the normal opening position (30°).
- Free the side pivots B to release the cover to its second opening position (60°).
- Follow the same procedure in reverse order to return the glove compartment to its normal position.
Identifying fuses below the dashboard by colours

NOTICE
- Always carefully remove the fuse box cov-ers and refit them correctly to avoid prob-lems with your vehicle.
- Protect the fuse boxes when open to avoid the entry of dust or humidity. Dirt and humid-ity inside fuse boxes can cause damage to the electrical system.
Fuses in the engine compartment
To open the engine compartment fuse box
- Raise the bonnet.
- Press the locking tabs to unlock the fuse box cover
- Then lift the cover out.
- To fit the cover, place it on the fuse box. Push the locking tabs down until they click audibly into place.
Replace a blown fuse
Preparations
- Switch off the ignition, lights and all electrical equipment.
- Open the corresponding fuse box.
Recognise a blown fuse
A blown fuse can be recognised if the metal strip is melted..
- Point a lamp at the fuse to see if it has blown.
To replace a fuse
- Remove the fuse.
- Replace the blown fuse by one with an iden-tical amperage rating (same colour and mark-ings) and identical size.
- Replace the cover again or close the fuse box lid.
