The vehicle may have two accessory power
outlets on the instrument panel.
Remove the cover to access and replace
when not in use.
Certain power accessory plugs may not be
compatible to the accessory power outlet
and could overload vehicle or adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see your dealer.
{Warning
Power is always supplied to the outlets.
Do not leave electrical equipment
plugged in when the vehicle is not in use
because the vehicle could catch fire and
cause injury or death.
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.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure
to follow the proper installation instructions
included with the equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0176.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from the
power outlet can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle warranty. The
power outlets are designed for accessory

70 Instruments and Controls
The 110/120 volt power outlet is on the
instrument panel.
An indicator light on the outlet turns on to
show it is in use. The light comes on when
the ignition is on, equipment requiring less
than 150 watts is plugged into the outlet,
and no system fault is detected.
The indicator light does not come on when
the ignition is off, or if the equipment is not
fully seated into the outlet.
If equipment is connected using more than
150 watts or a system fault is detected, a
protection circuit shuts off the power supply
and the indicator light turns off. To reset
the circuit, unplug the item and plug it back
in or turn the Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) off and then back on. SeeRetained
Accessory Power (RAP) 0138.
The power outlet is not designed for the
following, and may not work properly if
they are plugged in:
.Equipment with high initial peak wattage,
such as compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools
.Other equipment requiring an extremely
stable power supply, such as
microcomputer-controlled electric blankets
and touch sensor lamps
.Medical equipment
Cigarette Lighter
If equipped with a cigarette lighter, to heat,
push it in all the way and let go. When it is
ready for use, it will pop back out by itself.
Do not use the lighter to plug in accessory
devices. Use the power outlets provided.
Caution
Holding a cigarette lighter in while it is
heating does not let the lighter back
away from the heating element when it
is hot. Damage from overheating can
occur to the lighter or heating element,
or a fuse could be blown. Do not hold a
cigarette lighter in while it is heating.
Ashtrays
If equipped with a removable ashtray, it can
be placed into the front floor console
cupholder. Open the cover to use.
Caution

them and possibly damage the vehicle.
Never put flammable items in the
ashtray.
Warning Lights, Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair
or replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could prevent
injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly when
the engine is started to indicate they are
working. When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while driving,
or when one of the gauges shows there
may be a problem, check the section that
explains what to do. Waiting to do repairs
can be costly and even dangerous.
