NOTICE
■To avoid damaging the power outlet and the plug
●Close the power outlet lid when not in use.
●Do not allow foreign objects or liquids to enter the power outlet, as this
may cause a short circuit.
●Do not use plug adaptors to connect too many plugs to the power outlet.
●After removing a plug, gently close the power outlet lid.
■To prevent the fuse from being blown
Do not use a 120 V AC appliance that requires more than the maximum
capacity of the power outlet. If a 120 V AC appliance that consumes more
than the maximum capacity is used, the protection circuit will cut the power
supply.

The following 120 V AC appliances may not operate even if their power con-
sumption is under maximum capacity.
●Appliances with high initial peak wattage
●Measuring devices that process precise data.
●Other appliances that require an extremely stable power supply
■To prevent battery discharge
Turn off all the vehicle's electronic equipment and accessories, such as the
headlights and air conditioning, when electrical appliances that consume in
excess of 100 W are used continuously for long periods of time.
■To prevent any damage caused by heat
●Do not use any electrical appliances that give off intense heat, such as
toasters, in any locations including the internal or external trim, seats and
deck.
●Do not use any electrical appliances that are easily affected by vibration or
heat inside the vehicle. Vibration while driving, or the heat of the sun while
