Power loss

After a temporary power loss, e.g. due

tings are also lost and must be reset:

Fuses

You will find the fuses and information
on their respective allocation in the
glove compartment behind a panel with
two snap clips.

fuse or replace it with a fuse

having a different color or amperage
rating. To do this could cause a fire in
the vehicle resulting from a circuit over-
load.
