Power Outlet 115 Volt
Alternating Current
For vehicles with this power outlet,
it can be used to plug in electrical
equipment that uses a maximum
limit of 150 watts.
The power outlet is located on the
rear of the center console.An indicator light on the outlet turns
on to show it is in use. The light
comes on when the ignition is in
ON/RUN and equipment requiring
less than 150 watts is plugged into
the outlet, and no system fault is
detected.
The indicator light does not come
on when the ignition is in LOCK/OFF
or if no equipment is plugged into
the outlet.
If equipment is connected using
more than 150 watts or a system
fault is detected, a protection circuit
shuts off the power supply and the
indicator light turns off. To reset
the circuit, unplug the item and
plug it back in or turn the Remote
Accessory Power (RAP) off and then
back on. SeeRetained Accessory
Power (RAP) on page 2-21. The
power restarts when equipment
using 150 watts or less is plugged
into the outlet and a system fault is
not detected.The power outlet is not designed for
the following electrical equipment
and may not work properly if these
items are plugged into the power
outlet:
Equipment with high
initial peak wattage such as:
compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools.
Other equipment requiring
an extremely stable
power supply such as:
microcomputer-controlled
electric blankets, touch sensor
lamps, etc.

Wiring on page 5-91.

Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. SeePassenger
Sensing System on page 1-55
for important safety information.
The instrument panel has a
passenger airbag status indicator.When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator
will light ON and OFF, or the symbol
for on and off, for several seconds
as a system check. If you are using
remote start to start the vehicle from
a distance, if equipped, you may not
see the system check. Then, after
several more seconds, the status
indicator will light either ON or OFF,
or either the on or off symbol to let
you know the status of the right front
passenger frontal airbag.
If the word ON or the on symbol is
lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the right front
passenger frontal airbag is enabled
(may inate).
If the word OFF or the off symbol
is lit on the passenger airbag
status indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the right front passenger
frontal airbag.If, after several seconds, both
status indicator lights remain on,
or if there are no lights at all, there
may be a problem with the lights
or the passenger sensing system.
See your dealer/retailer for service.
{CAUTION
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have
the vehicle serviced right away.

If your vehicle does not have
DIC buttons, you can use the trip
odometer reset stem to view the
following displays: odometer, trip
odometers, oil life, park assist menu
for vehicles with the Ultrasonic Rear
Parking Assist (URPA) system,
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter programming, units,
and display language.
If your vehicle has DIC buttons,
you can use the trip odometer reset
stem to view the following displays:
odometer and trip odometers.
Trip Odometer Reset Stem
Menu Items
ODOMETER
Press the trip odometer reset
stem until ODOMETER displays.
This display shows the distance
the vehicle has been driven in
either miles (mi) or kilometers (km).
To switch between English and
metric measurements, see “UNITS”
later in this section.TRIP A or TRIP B
Press the trip odometer reset stem
until TRIP A or TRIP B displays.
This display shows the current
distance traveled in either miles (mi)
or kilometers (km) since the last
reset for each trip odometer. Both
trip odometers can be used at the
same time.
Each trip odometer can be reset
to zero separately by pressing and
holding the trip odometer reset
stem while the desired trip odometer
is displayed.
The trip odometer has a feature
called the retro-active reset.
This can be used to set the trip
odometer to the number of miles
(kilometers) driven since the ignition
was last turned on. This can be
used if the trip odometer is not
reset at the beginning of the trip.To use the retro-active reset feature,
press and hold the trip odometer
reset stem for at least four seconds.
The trip odometer will display
the number of miles (mi) or
kilometers (km) driven since the
ignition was last turned on and
the vehicle was moving. Once the
vehicle begins moving, the trip
odometer will accumulate mileage.
For example, if the vehicle was
driven 5 miles (8 km) before it
is started again, and then the
retro-active reset feature is activated,
the display will show 5 miles (8 km).
As the vehicle begins moving, the
display will then increase to 5.1 miles
(8.2 km), 5.2 miles (8.4 km), etc.
If the retro-active reset feature is
activated after the vehicle is started,
but before it begins moving, the
display will show the number of
miles (mi) or kilometers (km)
that were driven during the last
ignition cycle.
