Add-On Electrical Equipment

Warning
The Data Link Connector (DLC) is used for
vehicle service and Emission Inspection/
Maintenance testing. See Service Vehicle
Soon Light (Propulsion System Failure)
0 115. A device connected to the DLC
such as an aftermarket fleet or
driver-behavior tracking device
interfere with vehicle systems. This could
affect vehicle operation and cause a
crash. Such devices may also access
information stored in the vehicle s
systems.
Caution
Some electrical equipment can damage
the vehicle or cause components to not
work and would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Always check with your
dealer before adding electrical equipment.
Add-on equipment can drain the vehicle's
12-volt battery, even if the vehicle is not
operating.
When adding electrical equipment, it should
only be connected using the accessory
power outlets. The maximum power that
can be supplied by one accessory power
outlet or spread across all three is 200 watts
or 15 amps. Exceeding 200 watts or 15 amps
may cause erratic vehicle operation.
The vehicle has an airbag system. Before
attempting to add anything electrical to the
may
vehicle, see Servicing the Airbag-Equipped
Vehicle 0 68 and
Adding Equipment to the Airbag-Equipped
Vehicle 0 68.

Auxiliary Switches

On-screen auxiliary switches, if equipped, are
quick-touch icons that appear within the
infotainment system, giving you easy access
to some of the features of certain
aftermarket accessories installed on the
vehicle (off-road lighting, light bars, etc.).
Driving and Operating
To access the on-screen auxiliary switches,
select Controls > Aux Switches. Six on-screen
auxiliary switches are available.
Use of the on-screen switches requires
installation of an auxiliary switch interface
module, which is mounted under the hood.
See your dealer for purchase and installation
of the necessary components. When an
aftermarket accessory is installed onto the
vehicle, it should be hard-wired to the
auxiliary switch interface module to the
numbered connection that corresponds with
the numbered on-screen auxiliary switch.
See Accessories and Modifications 0 324.
If you touch an on-screen auxiliary switch
but the auxiliary switch interface module is
not installed or has no accessory wired at
that connection, a message No accessory
connected to this switch displays.
Customizing the On-Screen Auxiliary
Switches
After a purchased accessory is installed,
create a text label for the corresponding
on-screen auxiliary switch and choose an
icon to represent the installed accessory.
1. While the vehicle is in P (Park), touch the
Controls icon on the infotainment
home page.
