Fuses
Important safety notes
G WARNING
If you manipulate or bridge af aulty fuse or if
you replace it with af use with ah igher amper-
age, the electric cables could be overloaded.
This could result in af ire. There is ar isk of an
accident and injury.
Alway sr eplace faulty fuses with the specified
new fuses having the correct amperage.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the
same rating, which you can recognize by the
color and value .T he 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 241).
If an ewly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at aq ualified special-
ist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
! Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have the
correct fuse rating for the system concerned.
Otherwise, component sors ystems could be
damaged.
! Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
! When closing the cover, make sure that it is
lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper-
ation of the fuses.
The fuses in your vehicle serve to close down
faulty circuits. If af use blows, all the compo-
nent sont he circuit and their functions stop
operating. Fuses 253
