²In a convertible vehicle, the system performance may
be compromised with roof top down.
²Performance, such as audio clarity, echo, and loudness
to a large degree rely on the phone and network, and
not the UConnectŸ system.
²Echo at far end can sometime be reduced by lowering
the in-vehicle audio volume.

connection to the UConnectŸ system. When this hap-

Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off
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 inter-
mittently 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
generator to recharge the vehicle's battery.
CONSOLE FEATURES
The console has two front cup holders, a removable coin
holder, 12 volt power outlet and a front storage tray.
There are three additional cup holders; one is molded in
the center of the console to hold large cups and the others
are in the rear of the console to serve passengers in the
rear seat. The floor console power outlet will also operate
a conventional cigar lighter unit (if equipped with an
optional Smoker's Package).

CAUTION!
²Many accessories that can be plugged into the 12
volt power outlet, 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 start-
ing.
²Accessories that draw higher power such as cool-
ers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc., will discharge
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 generator to recharge the vehicle's battery.
