Practical information
Fuses
Introduction
Due to the constant update of vehicles, fuse assignments depending on
equipment and the use of the same fuse for various electrical components,
at the time of printing this manual it is not possible to provide an up-to-date
summary of the electrical components fuse positions. For detailed informa-
tion about the fuse positions, please consult a Technical Service.
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various electrical components. Like-
wise, an electrical component can be protected by several fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the problem has been solved. If a
newly inserted fuse blows after a short time, you must have the electrical
system checked by a specialised workshop as soon as possible.
Additional information and warnings:
● Working in the engine compartment ⇒ page 180
WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system can give serious electrical
shocks, causing burns and even death!
● Never touch the electrical wiring of the ignition system.
● Take care not to cause short circuits in the electrical system.
WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or bridging a current circuit with-
out fuses can cause a fire and serious injury.
● Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only replace fuses with a fuse of
the same amperage (same colour and markings) and size.
● Never repair a fuse.
● Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, staple or similar.
CAUTION
● To avoid damage to the vehicles electric system, before replacing a fuse
turn off the ignition, the lights and all electrical elements and remove the
keys from the ignition.
● If you replace a fuse with higher-rating fuse, you could cause damage to
another part of the electrical system.
● Protect the fuse boxes when open to avoid the entry of dust or humidity.
Dirt and humidity inside fuse boxes can cause damage to the electrical sys-
tem.
Note
One single consumer could have more than one fuse.
Note
Several consumers could run over one single fuse.

Information for replacing bulbs
Checklist
To replace a bulb, carry out the following operations always in the order giv-
en ⇒
:
1. Park the vehicle a safe distance from traffic and on suitable ground.
2. Apply the handbrake firmly ⇒ page 134.
3. Turn the light switch to position 0 ⇒ page 82.
4. Move the gear lever into the neutral position ⇒ page 82.
5. Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition ⇒ page 119.
6. Automatic gearbox: move the selector lever to position P
⇒ page 124.
7. Manual gearbox: Select a gear ⇒ page 124.
8. Allow the corresponding bulb to cool.
9. Visually inspect fuses to see if any are blown ⇒ page 263.
10. Replace the bulb according to the instructions ⇒
. Bulbs should
only be replaced by new identical models. Bulb information is dis-
played on the bulb socket or on the bulb itself.
11. In general, never touch the bulb glass directly. The heat of the bulb would cause the fingerprint to evaporate and condense on the reflec-
tor. This will impair the brightness of the headlight.
12. Check if the new bulb is working. If the bulb is not working, it maynot have been correctly fitted, it could be damaged or the connector
may not be correctly connected.
13. Every time a bulb for the headlights is replaced, visit a specialised workshop to check the headlights.
WARNING
Failure to follow the checklist prepared for your own safety could lead to
accidents and severe injuries.
● Always complete the operations given in the checklist and observe
the general rules of safety.
CAUTION
Always remove and fit headlights carefully to avoid damage to the paint-
work and other vehicle parts.

Replacing the bulbs in the headlights
Fig. 153 In the engine compartment: Rear view of the
front left headlight with rubber cover: A dipped beam
and main beam headlights, B side lights and daytime
driving lights and C turn signal
There is no need to remove the headlight to replace bulbs.
Complete operations only in the sequence given:
⇒ Fig. 153ABCDipped beam and main beam headlightsSide light and daytime driving lightTurn signals (front)1.Always take the checklist into account and take the necessary actions ⇒ page 267.2.Open the bonnet ⇒ page 180.
3.
Remove the bulb connector H4. Remove
the rubber cover using the tabs.
Turn the bulb holder in an anticlockwise direction as far as it will go and remove it, along with the bulb, pulling backwards.Press the retaining clip D downwards in
the direction of the arrow, and unclip side- ways and remove it.
4.Remove the bulb from the holder. If necessary, press the lock on the bulb holder.5.Replace the faulty bulb by a new identical bulb.

Practical information
Starting assistance
Introduction
If the engine fails to start because of a discharged battery, the battery of an-
other vehicle can be used to start the engine. Before starting, check the
magic eye on the battery ⇒ page 193.
For starting assistance, jump lead cables conforming to the standard
DIN 72553 are required (see the cable manufacturer instructions). The cable
section in vehicles with petrol engine must be at least 25 mm 2
.
Additional information and warnings:
● Working in the engine compartment ⇒ page 180
● Vehicle battery ⇒ page 193
WARNING
Incorrect use of jump leads and incorrectly jump starting could cause the
battery to explode resulting in serious injury. Please observe the follow-
ing rules to minimise the risk of a battery explosion:
● All work involving the vehicle battery and electrical system can cause
corrosion, fire and serious electric shocks. Always read and take into ac-
count the safety warnings and standards before beginning work on the
battery ⇒ page 193, Vehicle battery.
● The battery providing current must have the same voltage (12V) and
approximately the same capacity (see markings on battery) as the flat
battery.
● Never charge a frozen or recently thawed battery. A flat battery can al-
so freeze at temperatures close to 0 °C (+32 °F).
● If a battery is frozen and/or has been frozen then it must be replaced.
WARNING (Continued)
● A highly explosive mixture of gases is released when the battery is
being charged. Always keep lit cigarettes, open flames, sparks and fire
far from the battery. Never use a mobile telephone when connecting and
removing the jump leads.
● Charge the battery only in well ventilated areas given that when the
battery is charged by outside assistance, it creates a mix of highly explo-
sive gases.
● Jump leads should never enter into contact with moving parts in the
engine compartment.
● Never switch the positive and negative poles or connect the jump
leads incorrectly.
● Note the instruction manual provided by the manufacturer of the jump
leads.
CAUTION
To avoid considerable damage to the vehicle electrical system, note the fol-
lowing carefully:
● If the jump leads are incorrectly connected, this could result in a short
circuit.
● The vehicles must not touch each other, otherwise electricity could flow
as soon as the positive terminals are connected.
