POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
located on the instrument panel, to the right of
the radio, to convert DC current to AC current.
This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics
and other low power devices requiring power up to
150 Watts. Certain game consoles will exceed this
power limit, as will most power tools.
Power Inverter Location
To turn on the power inverter outlet, simply plug in
the device. The outlet automatically turns off when
the device is unplugged.
The power inverter is designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 150 Watts is
exceeded, the power inverter will automatically shut
down. Once the electrical device has been removed
from the outlet the inverter should automatically reset.
To avoid overloading the circuit, check the power
ratings on electrical devices prior to using the inverter.
AUXILIARY SWITCHES — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with two auxiliary
switches located on the instrument panel to the
left of the steering column which can be used to
power various electronic devices. Connections to
the switches are found in the right central pillar
fuse panel at the base of the passenger side
B-pillar.
Auxiliary Switches
Auxiliary Switch 1 is configured to constant battery
feed, while Auxiliary Switch 2 is configured to
ignition feed.
For further information on using the auxiliary
switches, please refer to the Ram Body Builder’s
Guide by accessing
www.rambodybuilder.com
and choosing the appropriate links.
After the use of high power draw accessories, 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
generator to recharge the vehicle's battery.
CAUTION!
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
