13-10 Useful advice for emergencies
Your vehicle uses a 12V electrical system.
CAUTION
• The BlueTec
®
exhaust gas aftertreatment
continues to operate for approx. 2 minutes
after placing the starter switch to the
“LOCK” position. If you need to remove a
fuse, do so after waiting for at least 2 min-
utes.
• Use care not to splash water on or around
the fuse box cover. Should water be
splashed over the fuse box cover, check the
inside of the fuse box for water.
Any drops of water left inside the compart-
ment could cause an electrical fault or fire.
The vehicle has blade-type fuses and high-current
fuses. The blade-type fuses are in the fuse box
located inside the cab and in the high-current fuse
box located outside the cab. The high-current fuse
box also contains the high-current fuses.
When a fuse has blown
WARNING
• Be sure to use fuses of the specified
amperages.
A fire could result if a fuse of incorrect
amperage is used. If a fuse is blown, have
the vehicle inspected and the blown fuse
replaced by an authorized dealer.
• Do not add wiring or modify equipment
yourself. Doing so may result in faulty
operation of the equipment and could
cause the vehicle to catch fire due to over-
heated wiring. Always contact an autho-
rized dealer if you intend to install
additional electric equipment and it
becomes necessary to modify the existing
equipment or add new wiring.
