■After a fuse is replaced
●When installing the lid, make sure
that the tab is installed securely.

tecting the wiring harness from
damage.
■When replacing an electronic
component, such as a lights,

downs and vehicle fire
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause dam-
age to the vehicle, and possibly a
fire or injury.
●Never use a fuse of a higher
amperage rating than that indi-
cated, or use any other object in
place of a fuse.
●Always use a genuine Toyota
fuse or equivalent.
Never replace a fuse with a
wire, even as a temporary fix.
●Do not modify the fuses or fuse
