Alternating Current If equipped with this power outlet on
the rear seat trim panel, it can be
used to plug in electrical equipment
that uses a maximum limit of 400
watts.
An indicator light on the outlet turns
on to show it is in use. The light
comes on when the ignition is in
ON/RUN, equipment requiring less
than 400 watts is plugged into the
outlet, and no system fault is
detected.
The indicator light does not come on
when the ignition is in LOCK/OFF or
if the equipment is not fully seated
into the outlet.
If equipment is connected using
more than 400 watts or a system
fault is detected, a protection circuit
shuts off the power supply and the
indicator light turns off. To reset the
circuit, unplug the item and plug it
back in or turn the Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) off and
then back on. See Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) 0 206 . The
power restarts when equipment using 400 watts or less is plugged
into the outlet and a system fault is
not detected.

the following and may not work
properly if this equipment is
plugged in:
.
Equipment with high initial peak
wattage, such as
compressor-driven refrigerators
or electric power tools.

Other equipment requiring an
extremely stable power supply,
such as
microcomputer-controlled
electric blankets or touch sensor
lamps.
