REPLACING FUSES
GENERAL INFORMATION
Fuses protect the electrical system:
they intervene (blow) in the event of a
fault or improper action on the system.
When a device does not work, check
the condition of its fuse: the filament
A fig. 110 must be intact.
If it is not, replace the blown fuse with
another with the same amperage (same
colour).
