Power Inverter — If Equipped
If equipped, a 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) inverter may
be located inside the center console towards the right hand
side, just under the Wireless Charging Pad (if equipped).
This inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain high-end video game consoles exceed this power
limit, as will most power tools.Center Console Power Inverter Outlet There is also a second 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) power
inverter located on the rear of the center console. This
inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain
high-end video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
All power inverters are designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 400 Watts is exceeded, the
power inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the outlet the inverter should reset.

NOTE:
400 Watts is the maximum for the inverter, not each outlet. If
three outlets are in use, 400 Watts is shared amongst the
devices plugged in.
If equipped, a 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) inverter may
be located inside the ram box of your vehicle. The inverter
can be turned on by the Instrument Panel Power Inverter
switch located to the left of the steering wheel. The RamBox
inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain
high-end video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
The Instrument Panel Power Inverter switch is only found on
vehicles equipped with a RamBox. The switch only controls
on/off operation of the power outlet in the RamBox; it does
not control on/off operation of the power outlets located
inside the cabin of the vehicle.Ram Box Power Inverter

Instrument Panel Power Inverter Switch
If equipped with a front bench seat, there may be a 115 Volt
(400 Watts Maximum) inverter located to the right of the
center stack, just below the climate controls. This inverter can
power cellular phones, electronics and other low power
devices requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain high-end
video game consoles exceed this power limit, as will most
power tools. Center Stack Power Inverter
To turn on the power outlet, simply plug in the device. The
outlet turns off when the device is unplugged.
NOTE:
• The Center Stack Power Inverter is only available on vehi -
cles equipped with a front bench seat.
• The Power Inverter only turns on if the ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position.
• Due to built-in overload protection, the power inverter shuts down if the power rating is exceeded.

NOTE:
• The charging system is independent from load reduction.The charging system performs a diagnostic on the
charging system continuously.
• If the Battery Charge Warning Light is on it may indicate a problem with the charging system. Refer to “Battery
Charge Warning Light” in “Getting To Know Your Instru -
ment Panel” for further information.
The electrical loads that may be switched off (if equipped),
and vehicle functions which can be affected by load reduc -
tion:
• Heated Seats / Vented Seats / Heated Wheel
• Rear Defroster And Heated Mirrors
• HVAC System
• 115 Volts AC Power Inverter System
• Audio and Telematics System
Loss of the battery charge may indicate one or more of the
following conditions:
• The charging system cannot deliver enough electrical power to the vehicle system because the electrical loads are
larger than the capability of charging system. The charging
system is still functioning properly. • Turning on all possible vehicle electrical loads (e.g. HVAC
to max settings, exterior and interior lights, overloaded
power outlets +12 Volts, 115V AC, USB ports) during
certain driving conditions (city driving, towing, frequent
stopping).
• Installing options like additional lights, upfitter electrical accessories, audio systems, alarms and similar devices.
• Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by long parking periods).
• The vehicle was parked for an extended period of time (weeks, months).
• The battery was recently replaced and was not charged completely.
• The battery was discharged by an electrical load left on when the vehicle was parked.
• The battery w as used for an extended period with t he engine not running to supply radio, lights, chargers,

CAUTION!
• When installing the power distribution center cover, it is important to ensure the cover is properly positioned
and fully latched. Failure to do so may allow water to
get into the power distribution center and possibly
result in an electrical system failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to useonly a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The use
of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result
in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly
rated fuse continues to blow, it indicates a problem in
the circuit that must be corrected. CAUTION!
