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 vehicle is not
running, the battery will discharge.
There may be insufficient power to
restart your vehicle.
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 vehicle for full capacity use
of the power point. To prevent the
battery from discharging accidentally: •
Do not use the power point longer
than necessary when the vehicle
is not running.
• Do not leave devices plugged in
overnight or when you park your
vehicle for extended periods.
Locations
Power points may be in the following
locations:
• in the front of the center console
• inside the center console storage
bin
• on the rear of the center console.
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:
Keep the vehicle running to use
the power point.
