POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 W Power Inverter outlet located
on the right side of the vehicle, before the third row of
seats to convert DC current to AC current. The Power
Inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other
low power devices requiring up to 150 W. Certain video
game consoles will exceed this power limit, as will most
power tools.

Power Inverter

The Power Inverter turns on when the device is plugged in,
and the ignition is in ON/RUN position. It turns off when
the device is unplugged or the ignition is no longer in ON/
RUN position.
The Power Inverter is designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 150 W is exceeded, the
Power Inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the Power Inverter, it resets. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on
electrical devices prior to using the Power Inverter.
WIRELESS CHARGING PAD —
I
F EQUIPPED

Wireless Charging Pad Location

Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15W 3A Qi wireless
charging pad located inside of the storage area below the
climate controls. This charging pad is designed to
wirelessly charge your Qi enabled mobile phone. Qi is a
standard that allows wireless charging of your mobile
phone.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi wireless
charging. If the phone is not equipped with Qi wireless
charging functionality, an aftermarket sleeve or a
specialized back plate can be purchased from your mobile
phone provider or a local electronics retailer. Please see
your phone’s owner’s manual for further information.
The wireless charging pad is equipped with an anti-slip
mat to hold your mobile phone in place, and an LED
indicator light.
CAUTION!
 Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power
from the vehicle's battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will discharge suffi -
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
 Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these intermit -
tently and with greater caution.
 After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces -
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle's battery.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
 Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
 Do not touch with wet hands.
 Close the lid when not in use.
 If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.

Stow ‘n Vac Integrated Vacuum —
If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an integrated vacuum
system. This vacuum is for in-vehicle use only and should
only be used on dry materials and on in-vehicle surfaces.
It is located in the rear trim panel behind the sliding door
on the driver’s side of the vehicle. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using your
vacuum, basic precautions should be followed, including
the following:
WARNING!

Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to
be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously or fatally injured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
gear selector.
 Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave
the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in either the ACC
position, or engine running (ON), unless you are
using the vacuum system. Be aware a child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle when the vacuum system is in use. ALWAYS
push ignition button to place ignition in the OFF posi -
tion when finished using the vacuum system.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, serious injury or death:
 Do not use vacuum while vehicle is in
motion or while driving.
 Do not vacuum wet surfaces or any liquids.
 Do not use to vacuum up anything outside of the
vehicle.
 Do not vacuum any flammable liquids,
such as gasoline, or use around explosive
vapors. Vapors from flammable liquids may
form an explosive mixture with air and can
be ignited by heat, sparks, or flames. Vapors
may travel to a source of ignition and explode.
 Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking,
such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes/embers.
 Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near children.
 Do not leave the vacuum running while unattended.
 Use only as described in this manual. Use only
attachments provided with your vehicle.
 Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with
any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and
anything that may reduce air flow.
