Power Outlets
The accessory power outlet can be
used to plug in electrical equipment,
such as a mobile phone or MP3
player. The accessory power outlet
only works with the vehicle
turned on.
The vehicle has an accessory
power outlet on the lower center
stack below the climate control.
Open the cover to access and
replace when not in use.
Caution
Leaving electrical equipment
plugged in for an extended period
of time while the vehicle is off will
drain the battery. Always unplug
electrical equipment when not in
use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum
20 amp rating. Certain accessory power plugs may
not be compatible with the
accessory power outlet and could
overload vehicle or adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see
your dealer.
When adding electrical equipment,
be sure to follow the proper
installation instructions included with
the equipment. See
Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0247.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from
the power outlet can cause
damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty. The power
outlets are designed for
accessory power plugs only, such
as mobile phone charge cords.

lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
and knee airbag are allowed to
inflate.

indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and knee
airbag.

indicator lights remain on, or if there
are no lights at all, there may be a
problem with the lights or the
passenger sensing system. See
your dealer for service.

problem with the electrical charging
system. Have it checked by your
dealer. Driving while this light is on
could drain the 12-volt battery. If a short distance must be driven
with the light on, be sure to turn off
all accessories, such as the radio.

{Warning
The Data Link Connector (DLC) is
used for vehicle service and
Emission Inspection/Maintenance
testing. SeeService Vehicle Soon
Light 0118. A device connected
to the DLC —such as an
aftermarket fleet or
driver-behavior tracking device —
may interfere with vehicle
systems. This could affect vehicle
operation and cause a crash.
Such devices may also access
information stored in the vehicle’s
systems.
Caution
Some electrical equipment can
damage the vehicle or cause
components to not work and
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Always check
with your dealer before adding
electrical equipment.
Add-on equipment can drain the
vehicle's 12-volt battery, even if the
vehicle is not operating.
When adding electrical equipment, it
should only be connected using the
accessory power outlets. The
maximum power that can be
supplied by one accessory power
outlet or spread across all three is
200 watts or 15 amps. Exceeding
200 watts or 15 amps may cause
erratic vehicle operation. The vehicle has an airbag system.
Before attempting to add anything
electrical to the vehicle, see
