An indicator light on the outlet turns
on to show it is in use. The light
comes on when the ignition is
in ON/RUN and equipment requiring
less than 150 watts is plugged
into the outlet, and no system fault
is detected.
The indicator light does not come
on when the ignition is in LOCK/OFF
or if no equipment is plugged into
the outlet.
If equipment is connected using
more than 150 watts or a system
fault is detected, a protection circuit
shuts off the power supply and
the indicator light turns off. To reset
the circuit, unplug the item and
plug it back in or turn the Remote
Accessory Power (RAP) off and then
back on. SeeRetained Accessory
Power (RAP) on page 2-22.
The power restarts when equipment
using 150 watts or less is plugged
into the outlet and a system
fault is not detected.The power outlet is not designed for
the following electrical equipment
and may not work properly if
these items are plugged into the
power outlet:
Equipment with high initial
peak wattage such as:
compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools.
Other equipment requiring
an extremely stable power
supply such as:
microcomputer-controlled electric
blankets, touch sensor lamps, etc.
SeeHigh Voltage Devices and
Wiring on page 5-91.

all accessories, such as the
radio and air conditioner.
Voltmeter Gage
When the engine is not running, but
the ignition is on, this gage shows
the battery’s state of charge in
DC volts.
When the engine is running, this
gage shows the condition of
the charging system. The vehicle’s
charging system regulates
voltage based on the state of
charge of the battery. The voltmeter
may uctuate. This is normal.
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 idling for an extended
period.
If there is a problem with the battery
charging system, a SERVICE
BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM
message appears in the Driver
Information Center (DIC) and/or the
charging system light comes on.
SeeDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-48andCharging
System Light on page 3-32for more
information.
However, readings in either warning
zone can indicate a possible
problem in the electrical system.
Have the vehicle serviced as soon
as possible.

system is divided into two parts. If

ready to warn if there is a problem.
This light may also come on due
to low brake uid. SeeBrakes
