2004 CHRYSLER CONCORDE instrument panel

Outside Temperature
Because engine temperature can increase the displayed
temperature, temperature readings are slowly updated
when vehicle speed is below 20 mph (30 km/h).
ELECTRCAL POWER OUTLET
Your vehicle is equipped with one power outlet which is
located in the forward portion of the center console if
your vehicle has bucket seats or in the lower center of the
instrument panel if your vehicle has bench or split bench
seats. Accessories powered through this outlet are pro-
tected by a 15 amp fuse. The outlet may be converted to
a cigar lighter by installing the dealer obtained smoker’s
package. The outlet is operated by the ignition switch,
when in the “run” or “acc” positions only. You may
convert the outlet from ignition to battery power by
performing the following:
•Remove the fuse cover from the left end of the
instrument panel (see the paragraph on fuses in sec-
tion 7 of this manual.)
•Remove fuse #6 (its on the upper right of the fuse
block) from its “IGN” position.
•Move the fuse slightly right and insert it in the fuse #6
“BAT” location in the fuse block.
•Reinstall the fuse cover.
