Fuses
Data on the replacement fuse must
match
the data on the defective fuse.
The vehicle has two fuse boxes: one
behind a cover on the left side of the
load compartment and one in the front
left of the engine compartment. Store spare fuses in the load
compartment fuse box version B.
Open the cover 3 171.
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition. A blown fuse can be recognised by its
melted wire. Do not replace the fuse
until the cause of the fault has been
remedied.
Some functions are protected by
several fuses.
Fuses may also be inserted without

Wheel changing
Some vehicles are equipped with
a tyre repair kit instead of a spare
wheel 3 179.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information: ■ Park
the vehicle on a level, firm and
non-skid surface. The front wheels
must be in the straight-ahead
position.
■ Apply the hand brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or P.
■ Remove the spare wheel 3 183.
■ Never change more than one wheel at once.
■ Use the jack only to change wheels.
■ If the ground on which the vehicle is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be placed
under the jack.
■ No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked up.
■ Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
■ Do not start the vehicle when it is raised on the jack. ■ Before screwing in the wheel bolts,
clean them and lightly coat the
taper of each wheel bolt with
commercially available grease. 1. Pull off the wheel cover with the
hook. Vehicle tools 3 173.
For wheel covers with visible
wheel
bolts: The cover can remain
on the wheel. Do not remove the
retaining rings on the wheel bolts.
Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel
bolt caps with a screwdriver and
remove. To protect the wheel,
place a soft cloth between the
screwdriver and the alloy wheel. 2. Install the wheel wrench ensuring
that it locates securely and
slacken each bolt by half a turn.

Vehicle care
■ Wear eye protection and protective
clothing when handling a battery.
■ Use a booster battery with the same voltage (12 volts). Its capacity
(Ah) must not be much less than
that of the discharged battery.
■ Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of at
least 16 mm 2
(25 mm 2
for diesel
engines).
■ Do not disconnect the discharged battery from the vehicle.
■ Switch off all unnecessary electrical consumers.
■ Do not lean over the battery during jump starting.
■ Do not allow the terminals of one lead to touch those of the other
lead.
■ The vehicles must not come into contact with each other during the
jump starting process.
■ Apply the handbrake, transmission in neutral, automatic transmission
in P. Lead connection order:
1.
Connect the red lead to thepositive terminal of the booster
battery.
2. Connect the other end of the red lead to the positive terminal of the
discharged battery.
3. Connect the black lead to the negative terminal of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the other end of the black lead to a vehicle grounding point,
such as the engine block or an
engine mounting bolt. Connect as
far away from the discharged
battery as possible. Route the leads so that they cannot
catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.
To start the engine:
1.
Start the engine of the vehicleproviding the jump.
2. After 5 minutes, start the other engine. Start attempts should be
made for no longer than 15
seconds at an interval of 1 minute.
3. Allow both engines to idle for approx. 3 minutes with the leads
connected.
4. Switch on electrical consumers (e.g. headlights, heated rear
window) of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads.
