Tips and Maintenance
Te c h n i c a l D a t a
WARNING
•
If the prescribed torque of the wheel bolts is too low, they could loosen
whilst the vehicle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tightening torque is
too high, the wheel bolts and threads could be damaged.Caution
The stipulated torque for the wheel bolts on steel wheels and alloy wheels is
170 Nm with a tolerance of ±10 Nm. You should visit a specialised workshop
as soon as possible to check the torque with a torque wrench.
Note
•
The wheel bolts should be clean and turn easily. Do not grease or oil them.
•
The hexagonal socket in the screwdriver handle should be used only for
turning wheel bolts which have been slackened off. Do not use it to loosen or
tighten the wheel bolts.
•
If you notice that the wheel bolts are corroded and difficult to turn when
changing a wheel, they must be replaced before you have the tightening
torque checked.
•
If the spare tyre is not the same as the tyres that are mounted on the car -
for example with winter tyres - you should only use the spare tyre for a short
period of time and drive with extra care. Refit the normal road wheel as soon
as possible.
•
Have the flat tyre replaced as quickly as possible.
FusesChanging a fuse– Use the fuse tables, to find out where, and in which fuse box, the damaged fuse is located ⇒ page 244.
– Switch off the ignition and the component concerned.
– Remove the fuse box cover ⇒fig. 162 .
– Use the plastic pliers in the fuse box to remove the fuse.
– If the fuse has blown (the metal strip will have melted), replace it with a new fuse of the same amp rating (same colour and same
imprint) and size.The individual electrical circuits are protected by fuses. It is advisable to carry
several spare fuses at all times.

WARNING
Never “repair” damaged fuses and never replace them with higher rating
fuses. This could cause fires.
Note
•
If a newly inserted fuse blows after a short time, you must have the elec-
trical system checked by a qualified dealership as soon as possible.
•
If you replace a fuse with a stronger fuse, you could cause damage to
another location in the electrical system.
Fuse tableThe table shows the fuse locations for the most important consumers. The
right-hand columns contain the insert location, the figures in brackets indi-
cate the Ampère rating for the fuse. One single consumer could have more
than one fuse. Several consumers could run over one single fuse.
The fuse box has space for replacement fuses.
There are other fuses in the vehicle. These should be changed by a qualified
dealership.
