TABLE OF CONTENTS
POWER OUTLETS
• There are three 12 Volt electrical outlets onthis vehicle.
• The front 12 Volt power outlet has power available only when the ignition is placed in
the ACC or RUN position.
• The center console outlet is powered di- rectly from the battery (power available at all
times). Items plugged into this outlet may
discharge the battery and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
• There is also a 12 volt power outlet located on the back of the center console for rear passengers. This power outlet has power available
only when the ignition is placed in the ACC or RUN position.
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 system will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other object in the power outlet as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of the power outlet
can cause damage not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
