degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until

function normally.
ECO

• There are three possible 12–Volt Power Outlets in this vehicle.
• The front power outlet, located in the lower portion of the instrument
panel, is powered when the key is in the ON or ACC position.
• A second power outlet is located inside the center console bin and is
powered directly from the vehicle battery.
• On vehicles equipped with a rear subwoofer, there is a power outlet
located in the right rear cargo area.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If
the 160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded the fuse protecting the
