the steering wheel outward or push it inward as desired.
To lock the steering column in position, push the control
handle upward until fully engaged.

steering column is locked before driving your ve-
hicle. Failure to follow this warning may result in

CAUTION!
•Many 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 the engine from starting.
•Accessories 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.
•After 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.
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet located on the back
of the center console to convert DC current to AC current.
This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics and other
low power devices requiring power up to 150 Watts. Certain
high-end video games, such as Playstation3 and XBox360 will
exceed this power limit, as will most power tools.
