74GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLETS
Your vehicle is equipped with one 12 Volt
(13 Amp) power outlet on the instrument panel
and one 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlet in the
center console that can be used to power
cellular phones, small electronics and other low
powered electrical accessories. The power
outlets are labeled with either a “key” or a
“battery” symbol to indicate how the outlet is
powered. Power outlets labeled with a “key” are
powered when the ignition switch is in the ACC
or ON/RUN position, while the outlets labeled
with a “battery” are connected directly to the
battery and powered at all times.
NOTE:
All accessories connected to the “battery”
powered outlets should be removed or turned
off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the
battery against discharge.
The front power outlet is located inside the
storage area on the center stack of the
instrument panel.
Front Power Outlet

In addition to the front power outlet, there is
also a power outlet located in the storage area
of the center console.
Center Console Power Outlet

NOTE:
If the Media Hub is in use, do not exceed the
maximum power of 100 Watts (8 Amps) for the
center console power outlet. When the Media
Hub is not in use, the outlet can deliver up to
120 Watts (10 Amps). If the power rating is
exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will
need to be replaced.
The instrument panel power outlet and dual
rear console USB ports can be changed to
“battery” (powered at all times) by moving the
#12 20 Amp fuse from “IGN” to “B+”. These
fuses are located in the fuse box in the trunk,
below the load floor.
WARNING!
Do not place ashes inside the cubby bin
located on the center console on vehicles not
equipped with the ash receiver tray. A fire
leading to bodily injury could result.

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this type
of outlet should be inserted into any
12 Volt outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while
driving the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Many accessories that can be plugged in
draw power from the vehicle's battery even
when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.).
Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the
vehicle's battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will
degrade the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and with
greater caution.
After the use of high power draw accesso -
ries or long periods of the vehicle not being
started (with accessories still plugged in),
the vehicle must be driven a sufficient
length of time to allow the alternator to
recharge the vehicle's battery.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not hang any type of acces -
sory or accessory bracket from the plug.
Improper use of the power outlet can cause
damage.

The Front Fog Lamps use LED sources that are
not serviceable separately. The Front Fog Lamp
must be replaced as an assembly; see an
authorized dealer.
Front/Rear Side Marker Lamp
The Side Markers use LED lamps that are not
serviceable separately. The Side Markers must
be replaced as an assembly, see an authorized
dealer.
Rear Backup Lamp And Turn Signal Lamps

The Rear Backup and Turn Signal Lamp use LED
sources that are not serviceable separately. The
Rear Lamps must be replaced as an assembly,
see an authorized dealer for further information.

The License Lamp uses an LED source that is
not serviceable separately. The License Lamp
must be replaced as an assembly; see an
authorized dealer.
Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL)
The CHMSL Lamp uses LED sources that are
not serviceable separately. The CHMSL Lamp
must be replaced as an assembly; see an
authorized dealer.
FUSES
WARNING!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use
an appropriate replacement fuse with the
same amp rating as the original fuse. Never
replace a fuse with another fuse of higher
amp rating. Never replace a blown fuse with
metal wires or any other material. Do not
place a fuse inside a circuit breaker cavity
or vice versa. Failure to use proper fuses
may result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the
ignition is off and that all the other services
are switched off and/or disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an
authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system, trans -
mission system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check
the fuse element inside the blade fuse for a
break/melt.
Also, please be aware that when using power
outlets for extended periods of time with the
engine off may result in vehicle battery
discharge.
Blade Fuses

UNDERHOOD FUSES
The Front Power Distribution Center is located
in the engine compartment. This module
contains fuses and relays. Fuse cavity location
and descriptions are printed on the inside of the
power distribution center cover.
Front Power Distribution Center

1 — Fuse Element
2 — Blade Fuse with a good/ functional fuse ele -
ment.
3 — Blade fuse with a bad/ not functional fuse
element (blown fuse).
CAUTION!
When installing the power distribution
center cover, it is important to ensure the
cover is properly positioned and fully
latched. Failure to do so may allow water to
get into the power distribution center and
possibly result in an electrical system
failure.
When replacing a blown fuse, it is important
to use only a fuse having the correct
amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a
rating other than indicated may result in a
dangerous electrical system overload. If a
properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must
be corrected.
CAUTION! (Continued)
