~1min read

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 while the engine is running, and unplug the plug after use. Using the accessory plug for a long time 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.
- Using electrical products whose power consumption exceeds the rated limit may overheat the power outlet and wiring, which may cause electrical system failure.
- Always make sure the electrical plug is fully inserted into the power outlet. Incomplete connection may cause damage to the wiring.
- Electrical products with a built-in battery may cause current leakage, which may cause a malfunction of electrical/electronic devices in your vehicle. Use only electrical products with reverse current protection.
WARNING
Do not insert your finger or foreign objects (such as a pin) into the power outlet, and do not touch it with wet hands. You may receive an electric shock.
