I NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your car are protected from short
circuits by a combination
of fuses, circuit breakers, and
fusible themdi links in the wiring itself.
This greatly
reduces the chance
of fires caused by electrical problems.
This fuse panel is inside the
glove box. Pull the cover
down for access. Some
spare fuses and
a fuse
puller are included.
Be sure
to use the correct fuse. If you ever have a problem
on the road and don’t have
a spare fuse, you can “borrow”
one of the correct value. Just pick some feature of your car
that you can get along without
-- like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse, if it is of the value you need.
Replace
it as soon as you can.

Headlights
The
headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in
the light switch. An electrical overload will cause the
lights to go on and off, or
in some cases to remain off. If
this happens, have your headlight wiring checked right
away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools. If
the overload is caused by some electrical problem and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power
windows and other power accessories. When
the current
load is too heavy,
the circuit breaker opens and closes,
protecting the circuit
until the problem is fixed or goes
away.
