A WARNING
Improper use of the sockets and electrical ac-cessories can cause fires and severe Injuries.
• Never leave children in the vehicle unat-tended. Sockets and the devices connected to them can be used when the ignition is switched on.
A WARNING (Continued)
• If the electrical device gets too hot, switch off the device Immediately and disconnect it from the socket.
CD
• Observe the operating instructions for any device that you plug into the socket.
• Never exceed the maximum power rating as this could damage the whole vehicle electrical system.
• Only use accessories that have been ap-proved in accordance with valid guidelines concerning electromagnetic compatibility.
• Never feed electricity into the socket.
• Do not plug any heavy devices or connec-tions, such as mains adapters, directly Into the socket.
• Only connect devices to the socket with a voltage that matches the voltage of the socket.
CD
• In order to prevent damage to the electrical system, never connect equipment that gener-ates electricity, such as solar panels or battery chargers for charging the vehicle battery, to the 12-volt socket.
• Only use accessories that have been ap-proved in accordance with current guidelines concerning electromagnetic compatibility.
• In order to avoid damage due to voltage fluctuation, always switch any electrical con-sumers connected to the 12-volt sockets off be-fore switching the ignition or the engine on or off. When the start/stop system automatically switches off and restarts the engine, it is not necessary to switch off any connected electri-cal consumers.
• Never connect electrical devices requiring more electrical power to a 12-volt socket. The vehicle's electrical system can be damaged if the maximum power output is exceeded.

• Connect the mains coupling to the feed plug of the external socket so that the blue locking catch on the feed plug of the external socket engages.
• Lower the cover on the external socket to pro-tect the connection.
• Switch on the residual current circuit breaker 247. Please note the positions of the bridge connection: "on" (red) or "off' (green).
230-volt Euro socket, California
Disconnecting from the mains
• Switch off the residual current circuit breaker 247.
• Push up the external socket's protective cover.
• Depress the blue locking catch on the left of the feed plug and pull the mains coupling from the feed plug of the external socket.
• Push the protective cover of the external socket down until it clicks into place.
CD
Never connect an inappropriate power source as this could damage the whole vehicle electri-cal system.
• Power supplied to the vehicle must comply with valid standards and regulations.
• Never use power with excessive voltage, three-phase current, or the wrong frequency.
m When connected, the 230-volt power supply l!J will charge the additional batteries under the left front seat and in the living area 247.
m The 230-volt electrical feed will be shown as l!J a symbol in the display of the central control panel when charging. r-'('n First read and observe the introductory l-J,:..U Information and safety warnings & on page 242.

Depending on the vehicle equipment, the 230-volt grounded safety socket is located on the side of the kitchen unit 210 or in the side trim panel behind the left front seat 211 Intro-duction on page 243.
The 230-volt grounded safety socket only operates when the following conditions exist concurrently:
246 I Before the journey
The maximum power rating is 150 watts. Do not exceed the maximum power rating. This also ap-plies to the total power consumption of all connec-ted devices if you connect several devices at the same time in Introduction on page 243. The power rating of each device is stated on its type plate.
Temperature switch-off
The inverter in the 230-volt Euro socket will switch off automatically if the temperature exceeds a spe-cific value. The switch-off function prevents the connected device from overheating when the pow-er consumption is too high or if the ambient tem-perature is too high. The 230-volt Euro socket can-not be used again until after the cool-down phase.
The plug on the connected device must first be re-moved and then reinserted before using the 230-volt Euro socket again after the cooling phase. This helps prevent the connected electrical devices being switched on accidentally. <1

Fuse table
In some vehicles, the locations of fuse blocks could vary from the those shown In the table. How-ever, since the order of the amp ratings is identical within any individual fuse block, you will still be able to identify the electrical consumers if this is the case.
The fuses for the camping equipment electrical consumers are located under the left front seat 214. Other vehicle parts will have to be re-moved in order to gain access to the fuse box. If you are unsure, have the fuses changed by a qualified workshop.
Several electrical consumers could share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.

A WARNING (Continued)
• Never fit fuses that have a higher fuse pro-tection limit. Fuses must always be replaced by a new fuse with the same amp rating (same colour and markings) and size.
• Never repair a fuse.
• Never use a metal strip, paper clip or simi-lar objects to replace a fuse.
CD
• To avoid damage to the electrical system in the vehicle, switch the ignition, the lights and all electrical consumers off and remove the ve-hicle key from the ignition before changing a fuse.
• You can damage another position in the electrical system by using a fuse with a higher amp rating.
• Fuse boxes must be protected from dirt and moisture when opened. Dirt and moisture in the fuse boxes can damage the electrical system. Air conditioning system, California
