INTERNAL EQUIPMENT
Electrical Power Outlets
The auxiliary 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlets
can provide power for in-cab accessories de-
signed for use with the standard “cigar
lighter” plug. The 12 Volt power outlets and
USB Port (Charge Only) have a cap attached
to the outlet indicating “12V DC,” together
with either a key symbol, battery symbol, or
USB symbol.
A key symbol indicates that the key must be
in the ON/RUN or ACC positions for the outlet
to provide power. The battery symbol indi-
cates that the outlet is connected to the
battery, and can provide power at all times. NOTE:
To ensure proper operation, a Mopar knob
and element must be used.
CAUTION!
• Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watts (13 Amps) power rating is
exceeded, the fuse protecting the sys-
tem will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object
in the power outlets as this will damage
the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper
use of the power outlet can cause dam-
age not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

ume of the attached device.

fier for audio output from the Auxiliary de-
vice. Therefore if the volume control on the
Auxiliary device is set too low, there will be
insufficient audio signal for the radio unit to
play the music on the device.
