Do not leave the engine running when the vehicle is stationary.
Using electrical appliances with the engine switched off and the ignition switched on will
drain the battery.
Unshielded devices can cause interference with radio reception and vehicle electronics.
Interference with AM radio reception could occur if electrical devices are used in the vicinity
of the aerial.
Socket in the vehicle

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Maximum power rating
Electrical socketMaximum power rating
12-volt120 watts
The maximum power rating of the sockets may not be exceeded. The power rating of each device
is stated on its type plate.
If two or more devices are connected at the same time, ensure that the overall power consumption
of all connected electrical devices never exceeds 190 watts ⇒.
12-volt socket
The 12-volt socket is located in the ashtray in the front centre console ⇒ Fig. 92 and works only
when the ignition is switched on.
Using electrical appliances with the engine switched off and the ignition switched on will drain the
battery. Electrical consumers should therefore only be plugged into the sockets when the engine is
running.
To prevent damage due to voltage fluctuation, switch off any connected devices before switching
the ignition or engine on or off.
Improper use of the socket and electrical accessories can cause fires and other severe
injuries.
