with a “click” when ready. Pull it out for use.

●Something is wrong with the cigarette lighter if it
does not pop back out within approximately 30 sec-
onds of being pushed in.
Leaving the cigarette lighter pushed in for an
extended period could cause fire. If it does not pop
out by itself, we recommend you to have it checked.●Do not leave the cigarette lighter pushed in or insert
the cigarette lighter from another vehicle. Other-
wise, the lighter may overheat and cause fire.●It is recommended that only the lighter be inserted
in its socket.
Use of “plug-in” type accessories may damage the
socket and result in poor retention of the lighter.●When the cigarette lighter socket is used as a power
source for an electric appliance, be sure that the
electric appliance operates at 12 V and has an elec-
tric capacity of 120 W or less. In addition, long use
of the electric appliance without running the engine
may run down the battery.
