Ashtrays and Cigarette Lighter
The center front ashtray is located just below the
instrument panel's comfort controls.
To remove the ashtray, open the storage door. Then
open the small black door, lift up on the ashtray and pull
it out.
Notice: Don't hold a cigarette lighter in with your
hand while it is heating. If you do, it won't be able to
back away from the heating element when it's
ready. That can make it overheat, damaging the
lighter and the heating element.
To use the lighter, just push it in all the way and let go.
When it's ready, it will pop back out by itself.
Notice: Don't put papers or other flammable items
into your ashtrays. Hot cigarettes or other smoking
materials could ignite them, causing a damaging fire.
