72GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
An auxiliary power outlet can be found in the tray
on top of the center stack. This power outlet works
when the ignition is in the ON/RUN, ACC, or OFF
position.

When the vehicle is turned off, be sure to unplug
any equipment as to not drain the battery of the
vehicle. All accessories connected to the outlet(s)
should be removed or turned off when the vehicle
is not in use to protect the battery against
discharge.
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
If equipped, a 115 Volt (400 Watts maximum)
inverter may be located inside the center console
towards the right hand side, just under the
Wireless Charging Pad (if equipped). This inverter
can power cellular phones, electronics and other
low power devices requiring power up to
400 Watts. Certain video game consoles exceed
this power limit, as will most power tools.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the maximum power of 160
Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160 Watts
(13 Amps) power rating is exceeded, the fuse
protecting the system will need to be replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object in
the power outlets as this will damage the
outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage not covered
by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
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!

Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when not
in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle's battery
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 discharge the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter -
mittently 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.
