WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this type of
outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt
outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while driving
the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Do not connect devices with power higher than
180 Watts (15 Amps) to the socket. Do not
damage the socket by using unsuitable
adaptors. If the 180 Watt (15 Amp) power rating
is exceeded the fuse protecting the system will
need to be replaced.

POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt Power Inverter outlet
located on the back of the center console to
convert DC current to AC current. The Power
Inverter can power cellular phones, electronics
and other low power devices requiring up to

150 Watts. Certain video game consoles will
excee d

this power limit, as will most power tools.
115 Volt Power Inverter

The Power Inverter will automatically turn on and
off wh e

n a device is plugged in or removed.
In order for the Power Inverter to work, the engine
must b
e running and there must be no faults
detected with the alternator.
The Power Inverter is designed with built-in
overloa d

protection. If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the Power Inverter will
a utomat

ically shut down. Once the electrical
device has been removed from the Power Inverter
it will automatically reset. To avoid overloading the
circuit, check the power ratings on electrical
devices prior to using the Power Inverter.
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.). Eventu -
ally, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle's
batte r

y will discharge sufficiently 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 intermittently and with greater
caution.
After the use of high power draw accessories,
or long periods of the vehicle not being started
(with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle
must be driven a sufficient length of time to
allow the generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
