All electrical functions and components are
protected by a number of fuses in order to
protect the vehicle's electrical system from
damage by short circuiting or overloading.

2. Pull out the fuse and examine it from the
side to determine if the curved metal wire
in the fuse is intact.
3. If the wire is broken, replace the fuse with
a new fuse of the same color and amper-
age.
WARNING
Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a
higher amperage than that specified to
replace a fuse. This could cause significant
damage to the electrical system and possi-
bly lead to a fire.
WARNING
Contact an authorized Volvo workshop for
assistance replacing fuses not listed in the
Owner's Manual. If fuse replacement is
performed incorrectly, significant damage
can be caused to the electrical system.
