! The lighter socket can be used to
accommodate 12V DC electrical
accessories (up to a maximum of 180 W)
designed for use with the standard
“cigarette lighter” plug type. Keep in mind,
however, that connecting accessories to
the lighter socket (for example extensive
connecting and disconnecting, or using
plugs that do not fit properly) can damage
the lighter socket. With the socket
damaged, the lighter may not function
properly any longer.
! The cigarette lighter is not designed for
use with the electric air pump. Use the
power outlet in the second-row footwell for
electric air pump operation.
Power outlets
iYou can use the power outlets even if the
ignition is switched off.
An emergency shut-off feature is designed
to prevent the vehicle’s on-board voltage
from dropping below a minimum level. If
the on-board voltage drops to this
minimum level, the power outlets are
automatically switched off, to help
preserve engine starting power.
12V Power outlets
! If you use all power outlets in the vehicle,
make sure that the maximum current
drawn does not exceed 55 A.
! The power outlets in the front passenger
footwell and cargo compartment are not
designed for use with the electric air pump.
Use the power outlet in the second-row
footwell for electric air pump operation.
The power outlets can be used to
accommodate 12V DC electrical accessories
(e.g. mobile phone chargers, auxiliary lamps)
up to a maximum of 20 A (240 W).
