auxiliary battery location FORD ESCAPE 2014 3.G Owners Manual

12 Volt DC Power Point
WARNING
Do not plug optional electrical
accessories into the cigar lighter
socket (if equipped). Improper use
of the lighter can cause damage not
covered by your warranty, and can result
in fire or serious injury.
Note:If used when the engine is not
running, the battery will discharge. There
may be insufficient power to restart your
engine.
Note:Do not insert objects other than an
accessory plug into the power point. This
will damage the outlet and blow the fuse.
Note:Do not hang any type of accessory or
accessory bracket from the plug.
Note:Do not use the power point over the
vehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts or
a fuse may blow.
Note:Do not use the power point for
operating a cigar lighter element.
Note:Improper use of the power point can
cause damage not covered by your
warranty.
Note:Always keep the power point caps
closed when not in use.
Run the engine for full capacity use of the
power point. To prevent the battery from
being discharged:
• Do not use the power point longer than
necessary when the engine is not
running.
• Do not leave devices plugged in
overnight or when the vehicle is parked
for extended periods.
Locations
Power points may be found:• on the center console
• inside the center console storage bin
• on the rear of the center console (12V
or 110V AC)
• in the rear cargo area (if equipped).
110 Volt AC Power Point (If Equipped)
WARNING
Do not keep electrical devices
plugged in the power point whenever
the device is not in use. Do not use
any extension cord with the 110 volt AC
power point, since it will defeat the safety
protection design. Doing so my cause the
power point to overload due to powering
multiple devices that can reach beyond
the 150 watt load limit and could result in
fire or serious injury.
Note:The power point will turn off when
the ignition is switched off or the battery
voltage drops below 11 volts.
