ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLETS
The auxiliary 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlet can
provide power for in-cab accessories designed for
use with the standard “cigarette lighter” style plug.
The 12 Volt power outlets and 5 Volt (2.5 Amp) USB
Port (Charge Only) have a cap attached to the
outlet indicating “12V DC”, together with either a
key symbol, battery symbol, or USB symbol.
A key symbol indicates that the ignition must be in
the ON/RUN or ACC positions for the outlet to
provide power. The battery symbol indicates that
the outlet is connected to the battery, and can
provide power at all times.
An auxiliary power outlet can be found in the tray
on top of the center stack. This power outlet only
works when the ignition is in the ON/RUN or ACC
position.
