as coins or aluminum foil, into the accessory power socket. That could cause a short circuit. Always put the cap on the accessorypower socket when it is not in use. Use only electrical appliances which are designed for 12V DC
and which consume less than 120W. Overloading the accessorypower socket can cause a short circuit. Do not use double adapt-ers or more than one electrical appliance. If the plug on your electric appliance is either too loose or too
tight for the accessory power socket, this can result in a poorcontact or cause the plug to get stuck. Only use plugs that fitproperly in the accessory power socket. Use of an electric appliance in the accessory power socket for
a long period of time while the engine is not running can causebattery discharge.
