110 Volt AC Power Point (If Equipped)
WARNING:Do not keep electrical devices plugged in the
powerpoint whenever the device is not in use. Do not use any
extension cord with the 110 volt AC power point, since it will defeat
the safety protection design. Doing so my cause the powerpoint to

is not in use.
Note:Keep the engine running to use the power point.
The 110 volt AC power point outlet is used for powering electrical
devices that require up to 150 watt. Exceeding the 150 watt limit will
cause the power point to cut off the power temporarily to provide
overload protection.
The power point is located on the
instrument panel.
The power point 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.
