When performing maintenance on the electrical system of the Mercedes A-Class, it is useful to know the layout and diagram of the fuse boxes. The first box is located in the cabin, on the floor of the front passenger seat, protected by a cover under the mat. A second box is located on the driver's side in that side part of the dashboard covered by a door.

In the engine compartment, above the air filter housing, there is also a box containing some relays. To accurately identify the exact location of the fuse of interest, it is helpful to consult the specific diagram.
