The power outlet is designed to supply power to mobile phones or other devices designed to operate on the vehicle's electrical system. Devices should draw less than 10 amperes with the engine running.

CAUTION

  • Use the power outlet only with the engine running and unplug the accessory after use. Using the outlet for an extended period with the engine off may discharge the battery.
  • Use only 12 V electrical accessories with a current draw of less than 10 A.
  • Set the air conditioner or heater to the lowest operating level when using the power outlet.
  • Keep the cover closed when the outlet is not in use.
  • Some electronic devices may cause electronic interference when connected to the vehicle's power outlet. These devices may cause excessive static noise in audio, malfunctions in other electronic systems, or devices used in your vehicle.

WARNING

Do not insert your finger or a foreign object (such as a pin) into the power outlet, and do not touch it with wet hands. You may receive an electric shock or a fire may occur.
