12 V sockets
General notes
XTurn the SmartKey to position 1in the igni-
tion lock (
Ypage 153).
The sockets can be used for accessories with a maximum draw of 180 W (15 A). Accesso-
ries include such items as chargers for mobile
phones.
If you use the sockets for long periods when
the engine is switched off, the battery may
discharge.
An emergency cut-out ensures that the on-
board voltage does not drop too low. If the on-
board voltage is too low, the power to the
sockets is automatically cut. This ensures
that there is sufficient power to start the
engine.
If you have connected a device to the 12 V
socket, leave the cover of the stowage com-
partment open. This prevents the cover from being blocked.
