Default replacing a fuse

I can't seem to find any info as far as replacing a fuse. I have the passenger foot well open to the fuse that may have blown for the cruise control considering that it doesn't work. I want to check to see if my cruise control fuse is blown. They are so small I can't get my fingers in there. Is there a special tool for removing them? I don't want to just force it out with some needle nose pliers and risk breaking the prongs.
Thanks in advance.

Steve

There should be a fuse tool along with spare fuses in the fuse box under the hood next to the battery.

Yep, there it is. I would have never figured that out. The manual said nothing about it that I could find.
