Fuse colourMaximum amperagepurple3light brown5dark brown7.5red10blue15yellow/blue20white25green/pink30green40red50WARNINGAlways read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 149.CAUTION■
“Never repair” fuses or replace them with a fuse of a higher amperage – risk
of fire. This may also cause damage at another part of the electrical system.■
If a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical
system checked as quickly as possible by a specialist garage.
■
A blown fuse is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty
fuse with a new one of the same amperage.
Note
■
We recommend that you always carry replacement fuses in the vehicle. A box
of replacement fuses and bulbs can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Acces-
sories.■
One fuse may cover several consumers.
■
A single consumer may use several fuses.
