108 Interior equipmentAshtrayThe car has an ashtray in front of the gear
lever.
Lightly press the front of the ashtray to open
it. Remove the insert by taking hold of the
sides and lifting it straight up. Refit the insert
by sliding it straight in.
You can use the electrical socket in the stor-
age compartment under the armrest
between the front seats to charge a mobile
phone, for example. There is a recess on
each side of the compartment which will
accept a lead so that you can close the lid
without damaging the charger lead.
WARNING
The maximum output of the cigarette
lighter socket is 240 W (20 A). The rating
of the socket in the compartment between
the seats is the same. Overloading can
result in melting or even fire.
