Fuses
Notes
Replacing fuses
Never attempt to repair a blown fuse and do not replace a defective fuse with a substitute of another color or amperage rating; this could lead to a circuit overload, ultimately resulting in a fire in the vehicle.
Plastic tweezers and information on the fuse types and locations are stored in the fuse box in the cargo area.

Reattaching the covers
