97IN AN EMERGENCY
IF AN INTERIOR
LIGHT BURNS OUT IF A FUSE BLOWS
A fuse is an element for protecting
the electrical system. A fuse will trip
(i.e. it will blow) in the event of a fail-
ure or improper interventions in the
electrical system.
If an electrical device is not working,
check whether the respective fuse is
blown. The conductor should be in-
tact. If it is not, replace the fuse with
another with the same amperage
(same colour) fig. 37.
A- Undamaged fuse.
B - Fuse with broken filament. Modifications or repairs
to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly
and without bearing the features
of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire. COURTESY LIGHT
To replace the 12V-5W bulb use a
screwdriver as a lever at the points in-
dicated by the arrows and remove the
complete pressure-fit light unit
