POWER OUTLET
The power outlet is located on the instrument panel below the climate control and is
powered when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
The outlet can operate a conventional cigar lighter unit or power accessories
designed for use with a standard power outlet adapter.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will
need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other object
in the power outlet as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use
of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
