OK, sounds like you have the same setup as me.  

I purchased a new Haynes when I bought this bike.  It has the fuse
number, size, and circuit description in it. The fuse you are
referring to is F3 and it controls the Horn, Auxiliary Outlet, and
clock. According to Haynes, this fuse is 15A.  My bike and yours has a
10A fuse in it.  Sounds like Haynes has a typo.  I'd be careful about
putting larger fuses in.
