CAUTION!
²Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from
the vehicle's battery, even when not in use (i.e. cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the
vehicle's battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent engine starting.
²Accessories that draw higher power (i.e. coolers, vacuum
cleaners, lights, etc.), will degrade the battery even more
quickly. Only use these intermittently and with greater
caution.
²After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with accessories
still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a sufficient
length of time to allow the alternator to recharge the
vehicle's battery.
²Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not
hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the
plug. Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage
not covered by your warranty.
