Accessory Power Outlet(s)
With accessory power outlets, you can plug in
auxiliary electrical equipment such as a cellular
telephone or CB radio.
The accessory power outlet is located on the
passenger’s side of the instrument panel.
To use an outlet, pull the cover down. When
not using it, always cover the outlet with the
protective cap.
This circuit is protected by a fuse and has a
maximum current level.
Notice:Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain the battery. Always
turn off electrical equipment when not in
use and do not plug in equipment that exceeds
the maximum amperage rating.
Certain electrical accessories may not be
compatible with the accessory power outlet and
could result in blown vehicle or adapter fuses.
If you experience a problem, see your dealer for
additional information on accessory power outlets.Notice:Adding any electrical equipment to
your vehicle may damage it or keep other
components from working as they should.
The repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Do not use equipment exceeding
maximum amperage rating of 20 amperes.
Check with your dealer before adding electrical
equipment.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure to
follow the proper installation instructions included
with the equipment.
Notice:Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your warranty.
Do not hang any type of accessory or
accessory bracket from the plug because the
power outlets are designed for accessory
power plugs only.

{CAUTION:
If the airbag readiness light ever comes
on when you have turned off the airbag, it
means that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. The right front
passenger’s airbag could inate even
though the switch is off. If this ever
happens, do not let anyone whom the
national government has identied as a
member of a passenger airbag risk group
sit in the right front passenger’s position
(for example, do not secure a rear-facing
child restraint in the right front
passenger’s seat) until you have your
vehicle serviced. SeeAirbag Off Switch on
page 76andAirbag Readiness Light on
page 165for more on this, including
important safety information.
Charging System Light
The charging system
light may be located in
the instrument panel
cluster, or with the
auxiliary warning lights
in the center of the
instrument panel.
It should come on briefly when you turn on the
ignition, before the engine is running, as a check to
show that it is working.
If it stays on, or comes on while you are driving,
have your vehicle checked right away. You
could have a loose generator drive belt or some
other problem.
Driving while this light is on will drain your battery.
If you must drive a short distance with the light
on, turn off your radio and other accessories.
Sustained driving with a generator failure could
result in a lack of back-up braking if the engine
quits or the power steering pump should fail.

Voltmeter Gage
When your engine is
running, the voltmeter
gage shows the
charging system
voltage.
Readings in either warning zone indicate a
possible problem in the electrical system.
Readings in the low warning zone may occur
when a large number of electrical accessories are
operating in the vehicle and the engine is left at
an idle for an extended period. This condition
is normal since the charging system may not be
able to provide full power at engine idle. As engine
speeds are increased, this condition should
correct itself because higher engine speeds allow
the charging system to create maximum power.You can only drive a short time on the battery.
Be sure to shut off the radio, the fan or any
unnecessary accessories and have the system
serviced.
Service Transmission Warning Light
If your vehicle has an Allison®automatic
transmission, certain transmission malfunctions
will turn this light on.
This light is located with
the auxiliary warning
lights in the center of the
instrument panel.
If this light comes on while you are driving, do not
use the transmission shift control or you may
lose forward gears. The computer for the
transmission senses a problem and chooses a
gear to stay in so that you can drive the vehicle in
that gear. You may not be able to drive as fast
or back up when this light is on.

than those indicated on the fuse block.
