There is an accessory power outlet located on either side
of the ashtray on the instrument panel, and there is an
outlet in the rear cargo area. A small cap must be
removed to access an accessory power outlet. When not
using an outlet be sure to cover it with the protective cap.

Auxiliary Gage Package
A. Volt Gage
B. Delivered Torque Gage
C. Outside Temperature Gage
Your vehicle may have an auxiliary gage package
located at the front of the center console.
Volt Gage
This gage (A) is located
on the left side of the
gage package.
When your engine is not running, but the ignition is
in RUN, this gage shows your battery’s state of charge
in DC volts.
When the ignition is on and the engine is running, the
gage shows the condition of the charging system.
Readings between the low and high warning zones
indicate the normal operating range.
Readings in the low warning zone may occur when a
large number of electrical accessories are operating in
the vehicle and the engine is left at an idle for an
extended period. This condition is normal since the
charging system is not able to provide full power
at engine idle. As engine speeds are increased, this
condition should correct itself as higher engine speeds
allow the charging system to create maximum power. United States shown, Canada similar
