Auxiliary Power Points
12 Volt DC Power Point
WARNING:
Do not plug optional electrical accessories into the cigar lighter socket (if equipped). Improper use of the lighter can cause damage not covered by your warranty, and can result in fire or serious injury. |
Note:
If used when the vehicle is not running, the battery will discharge. There may be insufficient power to restart your vehicle.
Note:
Do not insert objects other than an accessory plug into the power point. This will damage the outlet and blow the fuse.
Note:
Do not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the plug.
Note:
Do not use the power point over the vehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts or a fuse may blow.
Note:
Do not use the power point for operating a cigar lighter element.
Note:
Improper use of the power point can cause damage not covered by your warranty.
Note:
Always keep the power point caps closed when not in use.
Run the vehicle for full capacity use of the power point. To prevent the battery from discharging accidentally:
- Do not use the power point longer than necessary when the vehicle is not running.
- Do not leave devices plugged in overnight or when you park your vehicle for extended periods.
Locations
Power points may be in the following locations:
- In the front of the center console.

110 Volt AC Power Point (If Equipped)
|
WARNING:
Do not keep electrical devices plugged in the power point whenever the device is not in use. Do not use any extension cord with the 110 volt AC power point, since it will defeat the safety protection design. Doing so my cause the power point to overload due to powering multiple devices that can reach beyond the 150 watt load limit and could result in fire or serious injury. |
Note:
Keep the vehicle running to use the power point.
You can use the power point for powering electrical devices that require up to 150 watts. It is on the rear of the center console.
When the indicator light, located on the power point is:- On — power point is ready to supply power.
- Off — power point power supply is off; ignition is not on.
- Flashing — power point is in fault mode.
The power outlet temporarily turns off power when in fault mode if the device exceeds the 150 watt limit. Unplug your device and switch the ignition off. Switch the ignition back on, but do not plug your device back in. Let the system cool off and switch the ignition off to reset the fault mode. Switch the ignition back on and make sure the indicator light remains on.
Do not use the power point for certain electric devices, including:- Cathode ray tube type televisions.
- Motor loads, for example vacuum cleaners, electric saws and other electric power tools, or compressor-driven refrigerators.
- Measuring devices which process precise data, for example medical equipment or measuring equipment.
- Other appliances requiring an extremely stable power supply, for example microcomputer-controlled electric blankets or touch sensor lamps.
