Cigarette lighter socket (if equipped)
CAUTION
The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the
instrument panel is originally designed to use a SUBARU genuine
cigarette lighter plug. Do not use non-genuine cigarette lighterplugs in the socket. Doing so may cause a short-circuit and over-heating, resulting in a fire. If the socket is ever used for a plug-in accessory such as a
mobile phone, they may damage the portion of the socket ’s inter-
nal mechanism that causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out ”
after its lighter element is heated. Therefore, do not place a ciga-rette lighter plug in a socket that has been used, even once, to
power a plug-in accessory. Doing so may cause the plug to stickand overheat, creating a potential fire hazard. Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such
as coins or aluminum foil, into the socket. That could cause ashort circuit.
