Just for curiosity, which ones are "spare" fuses? Don't ask. Right?!  |
Since you have the same year and model as I, they my fuse charts should work for you.
If you look at:

You'll see the scan (that I colorized) of my fuse layout.
It's only a moderate help, since I was NEVER able to find a legend of the fuse chart symbols. I had to guess and check against the electrical diagrams from the shop manuals, etc to figure out the few I needed to know.
Now, look at:

You'll see a pic of my fuse block.
(The green arrow points to my "fuse-tap" that I added for my hardwired radar detector).
If you look at the top of the photo, you will see a row of fuses that are NOT shown on the fuse chart. On second glance, you can see that they are 90 degrees from the edge fuses, and --- what a coincidence! --- there is one of each capacity.
These are the spares. a 5, 7.5, 10, 30, and 40 amp.
I pulled one out, and confirmed this, by seeing that there was no electrical connection in the fuse block, just something to hold the spare in.
GREAT FEATURE, eh??? I could only wish that they would be ID'ed them as spares a little more clearly, for non-experts like me.
(Also, it's pretty cool they provide a fuse-puller, clipped on the block too).
