The cigarette lighter employs a standard 12 Volt socket which can
also be used as a power source for electrical appliances. The appli-
ances connected to the socket must not exceed a power rating of
100 W.
WARNING
Take care when using the cigarette lighter. Carelessness or
negligence when using the cigarette lighter can cause burns.
The cigarette lighter also works when the ignition is off and
when the ignition key is removed. To avoid the risk of fire, never
leave children unsupervised in the vehicle.
The electrical sockets and any appliances connected to them
will operate only when the ignition is switched on. Improper use
of the electrical sockets or the appliances connected to them can
cause injuries or fire. To avoid the risk of injury, never leave chil-
dren unsupervised in the vehicle with the key.
Caution
Always use the correct type of plugs to avoid damaging the sockets.
Note
Using electrical appliances with the engine switched off will drain
the battery.
