AUX FORD ESCAPE 2004 1.G Owners Manual

The mirror will automatically return to the normal high reflective state
whenever the vehicle is placed in R (Reverse). This helps to ensure a
bright clear view in the mirror when backing up.
AUXILIARY POWER POINT
Power outlets are designed for
accessory plugs only. Do not
hang any type of accessory or
accessory bracket from the plug.
Improper use of the power
outlet can cause damage not
covered by your warranty.
The auxiliary power point is located
on the instrument panel.
Do not plug optional electrical
accessories into the cigarette lighter. Use the power point.
Do not use the power point for operating the cigarette lighter element.
The Maximum power each power point can supply depends on the fuse
rating. For example: a 20A fuse should supply a maximum of 240 Watts,
a 15A fuse should supply a maximum of 180 Watts and a 10A fuse should
supply a maximum of 120 Watts. Exceeding these limits will result in a
blown fuse.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
POWER WINDOWS (IF EQUIPPED)
When closing the power windows, you should verify they are free
of obstructions and ensure that children and/or pets are not in
the proximity of the window openings.
Press and hold the bottom part of
the rocker switch to open the
window. Press and hold the top part
of the rocker switch to close the
window.
NOTE:The window switches will
not illuminate when the window
lock control is in the LOCKED
position.
