Fuses
i:llJ Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Fuse box in the dash panel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 430
Fuses in the engine compartment . . . . . . . . . . 431 Changing a blown fuse ................... 431
At the time of print we are unable to provide an up-to-date overview of the locations of the fuses for the electrical consumers. This is because the vehi-cle is under constant development, because fuses are assigned differently depending on the vehicle equipment level and because several consumers may use a single fuse. You can get more informa-tion about the fuse layout from a Volkswagen Com-mercial Vehicles dealership.
Several electrical consumers could share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
A WARNING
Driving with an unsealed tyre is dangerous as it can cause accidents and serious Injuries.
• Do not carry on driving if the tyre pressure Is 1.3 bar (19 psi /130 kPa) or lower.
• Seek expert assistance. <l
Additional information and warnings:
• Drink holder =>page 153
• Preparation for working in the engine compart-ment =>page 350
• Battery =>page 362
A WARNING
High voltages in the electrical system can cause electric shocks, serious burns and death.
• Never touch the electrical wiring of the ig-nition system.
• Avoid causing short circuits in the electri-cal system.
A WARNING
Using unsuitable or repaired fuses and bridg-ing an electrical circuit without fuses can cause a fire and serious injuries.

A WARNING (Continued)
• Never fit fuses that have a higher fuse pro-tection limit. Fuses must always be replaced by a new fuse with the same amp rating (same colour and markings) and size.
• Never repair a fuse.
• Never use a metal strip, paper clip or simi-lar objects to replace a fuse.
Fuse box in the dash panel

CD
• To avoid damage to the electrical system in the vehicle, switch the Ignition, the lights and all electrical consumers off and remove the ve-hicle key from the ignition before changing a fuse.
• You can damage another position In the electrical system by using a fuse with a higher amp rating.
• Fuse boxes must be protected from dirt and moisture when opened. Dirt and moisture In the fuse boxes can damage the electrical system. <1
