Using the cigarette lighter
– Press in the button of the cigarette lighter ⇒page 106, fig. 96 .
– Wait until the button jumps forward.
– Remove the cigarette lighter immediately and use it.
– Insert the cigarette lighter again into the socket.
Using the power socket
– Take out the cigarette lighter.
– Insert the plug of the electrical appliance into the socket of the cigarette lighter.
The 12 volt power socket can also be used to supply power to electrical
accessories with a power uptake up to 180 watts.
WARNING
•Take care when using the cigarette lighter! Not paying proper
attention or incorrect use the cigarette lighter in an uncontrolled
manner may result in burns.
•The cigarette lighter and the power socket also operates when
the ignition is switched off or the ignition key withdrawn. You
should therefore never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
Caution
Always use matching plugs to avoid damaging the power sockets.
Note
•Connecting electrical components when the engine is not
running will drain the battery of the vehicle - risk of battery draining!
•Further information ⇒page 270, “Accessories, changes and replace-
ment of parts”.

trical accessories with a power uptake up to 180 watts. The vehicle battery
will be discharged in the process if the engine is stationary.
The same principles apply here as for ⇒page 106.
