Cell phone use
The use of Mobile Communications Equipment has become increasingly
important in the conduct of business and personal affairs. However,
drivers must not compromise their own or others’ safety when using
such equipment. Mobile Communications can enhance personal safety
and security when appropriately used, particularly in emergency
situations. Safety must be paramount when using mobile communications
equipment to avoid negating these benefits.
Mobile Communication Equipment includes, but is not limited to cellular
phones, pagers, portable email devices, in vehicle communications
systems, telematics devices and portable two-way radios.
A driver’s first responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle.
The most important thing you can do to prevent a crash is to
avoid distractions and pay attention to the road. Wait until it is safe to
operate Mobile Communications Equipment.

Type B
AUXILIARY POWER POINT
Power point outlets are designed
for accessory use only. Do not
hang any type of accessories or
accessory bracket from their
plugs. Improper use of the
power point outlet can cause
damage not covered by your
warranty.
Do not plug electrical accessories into the cigarette lighter socket
(if equipped). Always use the power point for accessories.
Do not use the power point for operating the cigarette lighter element.
The Maximum power each power point can supply depends on the fuse
rating. For example: a 20A fuse should supply a maximum of 240 Watts,
a 15A fuse should supply a maximum of 180 Watts. Exceeding these
limits will result in a blown fuse.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
Rear auxiliary power point (if equipped)
A second auxiliary power point is located on the rear side of the console.
It is accessible from the rear seats.
POWER WINDOWS
When closing the power
windows, you should verify
they are free of obstructions and
ensure that children and/or pets
are not in the proximity of the
window openings.
