The power outlet is designed to power mobile phones or other devices designed for use with the vehicle's electrical system. These devices must not draw more than 120 W while the engine is running.

WARNING

Avoid electric shock. Do not insert fingers or any other foreign object (such as a pin) into the outlet. Do not touch the plug with wet hands.

Noted

To prevent damage to the power outlet:

  • Use the outlet only with the engine running, and remove the accessory plug immediately after use. Prolonged use of the accessory outlet with the engine off may discharge the battery.
  • Use only 12 V electrical accessories with a power rating of less than 120 W.
  • Set the air conditioner or heater to the lowest power level when using the outlet.
  • Keep the cover closed when the outlet is not in use.
  • Some electronic devices may cause electronic interference when plugged into the vehicle outlet. They may cause excessive noise or malfunctions in other systems or electronic devices used in the vehicle.
  • Insert the plug fully. If the contact is incorrect, the outlet may overheat or the internal temperature fuse may blow.
  • Use only battery-powered electrical/electronic devices equipped with a reverse current protection system. Otherwise, current from the battery may flow through the vehicle's electrical system and cause a malfunction.
