Detecting a fuse which has blown

• For small fuses, push the catch on ① from above A.

• For bigger fuses, push the catch ① onto the fuse from the side B.

• If the fuse has blown, replace it with a new fuse of the same amp rating (same colour and same imprint) and same size  .

• Fit the cover back in place or fold the cover up.
