If your vehicle is equipped with three 12V power outlets,
they can be used simultaneously.
CAUTION
!
Be sure to use a “plug-in” type accessory operating
at 12 V and at 120 W or less. When using more than
one socket at the same time, make sure the total
power consumption of the electrical accessories does
not exceed 120 W at 12 V.
Also be aware that using electronic equipment with
the engine off may run the battery down.
When the power outlet is not in use, be sure to close
the power outlet cover or replace the cap. This will
prevent the power outlet from becoming clogged
and short circuiting.
