Note:Do not plug optional electrical accessories into the cigarette
lighter socket (if equipped). Improper use of the lighter can cause
damage not covered by your warranty, and can result in fire or serious
injury.
To prevent the fuse from being blown, do not use the power point(s)
over the vehicle capacity of 12V DC/180W. If the power point is not
working, a fuse may have blown. Refer toFuses and relaysin the
Roadside Emergencieschapter for information on checking and
replacing fuses.
To have full capacity usage of your power point, the engine is required to
be running to avoid unintentional discharge of the battery. To prevent
the battery from being discharged:
•do not use the power point longer than necessary when the engine is
not running,
•do not leave battery chargers, video game adapters, computers and
other devices plugged in overnight or when the vehicle is parked for
extended periods.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
Power point (110V AC)
The 110V AC power point outlet,
located on the rear of the floor
console, is used for powering
electrical devices that require up to
150W. Exceeding the 150W limit will
cause the power point to cut off the
power temporarily to provide
overload protection.
Note:The 110V AC power point is equipped with a safety cap and a
safety twist tab. They both provide protection from inserting any object
into the power point other than the 110V AC electrical device plug. The
safety cap should always be in a closed position whenever the power
point outlet is not in use.
The power outlet is not designed for the following electric appliances;
they may not work properly:
•Cathode ray tube type televisions.
•Motor loads, such as vacuum cleaners, electric saws and other electric
power tools, compressor-driven refrigerators, etc.
