l Some
fuses may not be installed on your ve-
hicle, depending on the vehicle model or spec-
ifications.
l The table above shows the main equipment
corresponding to each fuse.
The fuse box does not contain spare 7.5 A, 25 A or
30 A fuses. If one of these fuses burns out, substi-
tute with the following fuse.
7.5 A: 10 A spare fuse
25 A: 20 A spare fuse
30 A: 30 A audio system amp fuse
When using a substitute fuse, replace with a fuse of
the correct capacity as soon as possible. Identification of fuse Capacity Colour

1. Before replacing a fuse, always turn off the
electrical circuit concerned and turn the igni-
tion switch to the “LOCK” position or put
the operation mode in OFF.
2. Remove the fuse puller (A) from the inside of the fuse box in the engine compartment. 3. Referring

to the fuse load capacity table,
check the fuse pertaining to the problem. Maintenance

B- Fuse is OK
C- Blown fuse
NOTE l 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. Use the fuse puller to insert a new fuse with the same capacity. Make sure you insert the
fuse into the same location in the fuse block. CAUTION
l
If
the newly inserted fuse blows again af-
ter a short time, we recommend you to
have the electrical system checked to find
the cause and rectify it.
l Never use a fuse with a larger capacity
than specified or a substitute (such as a ca-
ble or foil). Doing so could cause the cir-
cuit wires to overheat and create a fire. Replacement of lamp bulbs
E01003100488
Before

replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is off. Do
not touch the glass part of the new bulb with your
bare fingers; the skin oil left on the glass will evap-
orate when the bulb gets hot and the vapour will
condense on the reflector and dim the surface. CAUTION
l
Bulbs
are extremely hot immediately af-
ter being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burnt.
NOTE l If

you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to con-
sult a specialist.
l Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp or lens.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon
as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob-
lem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers in-
side the lamp, we recommend you to have
the lamp checked.

Handle
halogen lamp bulbs with care.
The gas inside halogen lamp bulbs is high-
ly pressurized, so dropping, knocking, or
scratching a halogen lamp bulb can cause
it to shatter.
l Never hold the halogen lamp bulb with a
bare hand, dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the head-
lamps are operated.
If the glass surface is dirty, it must be
cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner, etc.,
and refit it after drying it thoroughly. Headlamps (low beam, for vehicles
with high intensity discharge head-
lamps)
