When an electrical accessory fails to
operate, switch it off and inspect the
fuse.
In the glove compartment
1 Open the glove compartment and
turn the two white quick-release
fasteners to the left. Spare fuses and
plastic tweezers are located on the
fuse holder.
2 Use the plastic tweezers to remove the fuse for the accessory or equip-
ment that has stopped working.
3 If the fuse is burned through (the
metal strip will have melted and
separated), replace it with a new fuse
of the same ampere rating (color
code).

The fuses, their respective ampere rat-
ings and the equipment in their circuits
are all indicated below the fuse holder.
Close the fuse holder by holding the top
of the cover in place and screwing the
two quick-release fasteners to the right.
Additional fuses are provided in the
luggage compartment (refer to next
columns).
The fuse for continuous positive current
is located in a separate fuse box above
the battery. If this fuse is defective, re-
fer the problem to your BMW center for
repair. Do not attempt to repair a burned
fuse or replace it with a fuse
having a different color or ampere rat-
ing. To do this could cause a fire in the
vehicle resulting from a circuit over-
load. <
If the fuse fails repeatedly, refer the
problem to your BMW center for repair.
