Switch off the ignition and the corresponding power consuming device before re-
placing a fuse.

Electrically adjustable seats are protected by automatic circuit breakers, which
switch on again automatically after a few seconds after the overload has been
eliminated.
Fuse colourMaximum amperagelight brown5dark brown7.5red10blue15yellow20white25green30orange40red50WARNINGAlways read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the en-
gine compartment » page 206.CAUTION■
“Never repair” fuses or replace them with a fuse of a higher amperage – risk of
fire! This may also cause damage at another part of the electrical system.■
If a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical sys-
tem checked as quickly as possible by a specialist garage.
■
A blown fuses is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty fuse
with a new one of the same amperage.
Note
■
We recommend always carrying replacement fuses in the vehicle. A box of re-
placement fuses can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Accessories.■
There can be several power consuming devices for one fuse.
■
There can be several consumer devices for one fuse, depending on the vehicle's
equipment.
■
Multiple fuses may exist for a single power consuming device.
■
Multiple power consuming devices can share a single fuse.
