Fuses - in engine compartment
Fuses in the engine compartment protect engine and brake functions, amongst other things.
On the inside of the cover there are tweezers that facilitate the procedure for the removal and fitting of fuses.
The fuse box also provides space for several spare fuses.
Replacing fuses
The fuses can be accessed following the removal of the cover fitted on the starter battery and the cover for the electrical distribution unit.
Removing the covers
Fold out the locking catches that are fitted on the sides of the cover on the starter battery.
Lift the cover straight up.
Fold out the locking catch that is fitted on the side of the electrical distribution unit.
Rotate the cover upward until the lock lugs (1) are released.
Fold the cover toward the engine to access the fuses.
Refitting the covers
Reinstall the parts in reverse order.
Positions
The label on the inside of the cover shows the positions of the fuses.
- Fuses 7-18 and 46 are of the "JCASE" type and should be replaced by a workshop 1.
