Fuses
Introduction
The electrical fuses in your vehicle serve to
switch off malfunctioning power circuits.
If a fuse is blown, the components and sys-
tems secured by that fuse will stop operating.
G
Warning!
Only use fuses approved by Mercedes-Benz
with the specified amperage for the system
in question and do not attempt to repair or
bridge a blown fuse. Using other than
approved fuses or using repaired or bridged
fuses may cause an overload leading to a
fire, and/or cause damage to electrical
components and/or systems. Have the
cause determined and remedied by an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
A blown fuse must be replaced by an appro-
priate spare fuse (recognizable by its color or
the fuse rating given on the fuse) of the
amperage recommended in the fuse chart.
Any Mercedes-Benz Center will be glad to
advise you on this subject.
i
In case of a blown fuse contact Roadside
Assistance or an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center.
If a newly inserted fuse blows again, have the
cause determined and rectified by an author-
ized Mercedes-Benz Center.
A fuse chart is located in the trunk with the
vehicle tool kit (Y page 252). The fuse chart
explains the fuse allocation and fuse amper-
ages.
The electrical fuses are located in fuse boxes
on the driver’s side of the engine compart-
ment, on the passenger side of the engine
compartment, under passenger-side rear
storage compartment or in the trunk.
