rapidly. If the wheels break free of the ice,
the vehicle could suddenly start moving
and possibly cause an accident.
IMPORTANT
178)The impact on tyres and/or wheels
when driving on a bumpy or rutted road
can damage the tyre and/or wheel.
FUSIBLE LINKS
The fusible links will melt to prevent a
fire if a large current attempts to flow
through certain electrical systems. In
case of a melted fuse link, we
recommend you to have your vehicle
inspected. For the fusible links, please
refer to “Passenger compartment fuse
location table” and “Engine
compartment fuse location table”.
331)
WARNING
331)Fusible links must not be replaced by
any other device. Failing to fit the correct
fusible may result in fire in the vehicle,
property destruction and serious or fatal
injuries at any time.
FUSES
Fuse block location
To prevent damage to the electrical
system due to short-circuiting or
overloading, each individual circuit is
provided with a fuse. There are fuse
blocks in the passenger compartment
and in the engine compartment.
Passenger compartment (LHD
vehicles)
The fuse blocks in the passenger
compartment are located behind the
fuse lid in front of the driver’s seat at the
position shown in the illustration. Pull
the fuse lid to remove it.
Passenger compartment (RHD
vehicles)
The fuse block in the passenger
compartment is located behind the
glove box at the position shown in the
illustration.

1. Open the glove box.
2. While pressing the side of the glove
box, unhook the left and right hooks (A)
and lower the glove box.
3. Remove the glove box fastener (B),
and then remove the glove box.Engine compartment
In the engine compartment, the fuse
block is located as shown in the
illustration.
A — Push the tab.
B — Remove the cover.Fuse load capacity
The fuse capacity and the names of
electrical systems protected by the
fuses are indicated on the inside of the
fuse lid (LHD vehicles), the back side of
the glove box (RHD vehicles) and inside
of the fuse block cover (inside of the
engine compartment).
NOTE Spare fuses are provided in the
fuse block of the engine compartment.
Always use a fuse of the same capacity
for replacement.

1. Before replacing a fuse, always turn
off the electrical circuit concerned and
place the ignition switch in the “LOCK”
position or put the operation mode in
OFF.
2. Remove the fuse puller (A) from the
inside of the fuse block in the engine
compartment.
3. Referring to the fuse load capacity
table, check the fuse pertaining to the
problem.B. Fuse is OK
C. Blown fuse
NOTE If any system does not function
but the fuse corresponding to that
system is normal, there may be a fault
in the system elsewhere. We
recommend you to have your vehicle
checked.
4. Insert a new fuse of the same
capacity by using the fuse puller.
WARNING
332)Never replace a fuse with another
with a higher amp rating; DANGER OF
FIRE. If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-FUSE) is activated,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
333)If the newly inserted fuse blows again
after a short time, we recommend you to
have the electrical system checked to find
the cause and rectify it.
334)Never use a fuse with a larger
capacity than specified or a substitute
(such as a cable or foil). Doing so could
cause the circuit wires to overheat and
create a fire.
335)Never replace a blown fuse with metal
wires or other material.
336)Before replacing a fuse, make sure
that the ignition key has been removed and
that all the other services are switched off
and/or disengaged.
337)If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (airbag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system,
transmission system) or steering system
blows, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT
179)If it is necessary to wash the engine
compartment, take care not to directly hit
the fuse box and the window wiper motor
with the water jet
