Important safety notes
G WAR NING
If you manipulate or brid ge a faulty fuse or if
you replace it wit h a fuse wit h a higher amper-
age, the electr ic cables could be overloaded.
This could result in a fire. There is a risk of an
acc iden t and injury. Always replace faulty fuses with the specified
new fuses having the correct amperage.
Blo wn fuses must be replaced with fuses of the
same rating, whic h you can recognize by the
color and value. The fuse ratings are listed in the
fuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is located in the vehicle
tool kit in the stowage compartment under the
trunk floor ( Y
page 286).
If a newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified special-
ist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.

Mercedes-Benz vehicles and whic h have the
correct fuse rating for the system concerned.

lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper-
