CHANGING A FUSE

GENERAL INFORMATION

The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action if
there is a fault or improper action on the
system.

Check the state of the corresponding fuse
when a device does not work: the filament
A-fig. 34 must be intact. If it is not, re-
place the blown fuse with a new one of the
same amperage (same colour).

B undamaged fuse fig. 34

C fuse with damaged filament fig. 34.

Do not replace one fuse with
another of greater amper-

age; FIRE HAZARD.

with metal wires or other
recycled material.

If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-FUSE,

MAXI-FUSE) is activated, contact
a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

If the same fuse blows again,
contact a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

Remove the key from the ig-
nition and switch off or dis-

connect all devices before replacing
a fuse.

WARNING

If a general protection fuse
for safety systems (air bag

system, braking system), power unit
systems (engine system, transmission
system) or steering system is triggered,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
