Fuses
Introduction
Due to the constant update of vehicles, fuse assignments depending on
equipment and the use of the same fuse for various electrical components, at
the time of printing this manual it is not possible to provide an up-to-date
summary of the electrical components fuse positions. For detailed informa-
tion about the fuse positions, please consult a qualified workshop.
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various electrical components. Like-
wise, 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 qualified dealership as soon as possible.
Additional information and warnings:
xWorking in the engine compartment Ÿpage 304
WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system can give serious electrical
shocks, causing burns and even death!
xNever touch the electrical wiring of the ignition system.
xTake 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.
xNever use a fuse with a higher value. Only replace fuses with a fuse of
the same amperage (same colour and markings) and size.
xNever repair a fuse.
xNever replace a fuse by a metal strip, staple or similar.
Caution
xTo avoid damage to the vehicles electric system, before replacing a fuse
turn off the ignition, the lights and all electrical elements and remove the
keys from the ignition.
xIf you replace a fuse with higher-rating fuse, you could cause damage to
another part of the electrical system.
xProtect the fuse boxes when open to avoid the entry of dust or humidity.
Dirt and humidity inside fuse boxes can cause damage to the electrical
system.
Note
One single consumer could have more than one fuse.
Note
Several consumers could run over one single fuse.

the ignition is switched. This signals that the lamp is working properly. They
will switch off after a few seconds.

For vehicles with the factory fitted trailer system, certain trailer lights are also
controlled if the socket is correctly connected.
A fault on a trailer turn indicator is indicated on the instrument panel by the
indicator blinking twice as fast (
or
) Ÿpage 113.
xGeneral fault of all indicators on one side.
xFault in one tail light (on some models, also the registration light).
xFault in two brake lights.

traffic, or may cause accidents and severe injuries.
xNever ignore the warning lamps or text messages.
xStop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Caution
Failure to heed the warning lamps and text messages when they appear may
result in faults in the vehicle.
Note
A fault in the LED on the tail lights will not be indicated. However, if the fault
affects all the LEDs then this will be indicated by the indicator .
Information for replacing bulbs
Checklist
To replace a bulb, carry out the following operations always in the order given
Ÿ:
1. Park the vehicle a safe distance from traffic and on suitable ground.
2. Connect the electronic parking brake Ÿpage 210.
3. Turn the light switch to position 0 Ÿpage 113.
4. Move the gear lever into the neutral position Ÿpage 113.
5. Automatic gearbox: Move selector lever to position P Ÿpage 201.
6. Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition Ÿpage 195.
7. Manual gearbox: Select a gear Ÿpage 201.
8. Wait until all of the passenger compartment lights are turned off
Ÿpage 113.
9. Allow the corresponding bulb to cool.
10. Visually inspect fuses to see if any are blown Ÿpage 356.
11. Replace the bulb according to the instructions Ÿ. Bulbs should only
be replaced by new identical models. Bulb information is displayed on
the bulb socket or on the bulb itself.
12. In general, never touch the bulb glass directly. The heat of the bulb would
cause the fingerprint to evaporate and condense on the reflector. This
will impair the brightness of the headlight.
