Note:When you switch the ignition on, youcan use the socket to power 12 voltappliances with a maximum current ratingof 15 amps.
If the power supply does not work after youswitch the ignition off, switch the ignitionon.Note:Do not hang any accessory from theaccessory plug.
Note:Do not use the power point over thevehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts ora fuse may blow.
Note:Always keep the power point capsclosed when not in use.
Do not insert objects other than anaccessory plug into the power point. Thisdamages the power point and may blowthe fuse.
Run the vehicle for full capacity use of thepower point.
To prevent the battery from running out ofcharge:

110 Volt AC Power Point (If Equipped)
WARNING: Do not keep electricaldevices plugged in the power pointwhenever the device is not in use. Do notuse any extension cord with the 110 voltAC power point, since it will defeat thesafety protection design. Doing so maycause the power point to overload dueto powering multiple devices that canreach beyond the 150 watt load limit andcould result in fire or serious injury.
Note:The power point turns off when youswitch the ignition off, or when the batteryvoltage drops below 11 volts.
You can use the power point for electricdevices that require up to 150 watts. It ison the rear of the center console.
