or the fuse cover in the engine compartment
⇒
page 259.
– Find out which fuse belongs to the relevant component
⇒
page 260,
“Fuse assignment in the dash panel” or
⇒
page 259, “Fuse assignment
in engine compartment”.
– Take the plastic clip out of its fixture in the fuse cover, insert it onto the
respective fuse and pull out this fuse.
– Defect fuses can be detected by th
eir melted metal st

defect fuse by a new fuse of the
same
ampere number.
– Fit on the fuse cover again.We recommend that you always have the
small box of replacement fuses in your
vehicle. You can obtain replacement fuses from Škoda original accessories or from a specialist garage
22).

Caution
•
Never attempt to “repair” fuses and also do not replace them with a fuse of a
higher amperage - risk of fire! This may
also cause damage at another part of the
electrical system.•
Have the electrical system checked as quickly as possible by a specialist garage
if a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time.
