G WARNING
Any device that you connect must have a suit-
able plug and meet U.S. standards. Never pull
at a cable to disconnect a plug from a 115 V
AC power socket. Never use a damaged con-
nection cable. The 115 V AC power socket
must never be connected to another 115 V AC
power source. Do not use a converter with an
earthed plug for the 115 V AC power socket.
This could cause serious injury to you and/or
other people.
G WARNING
If the 115 V AC power socket is damaged or
pulled out of the trim, do not use or touch the
115 V AC power socket. The use of a 115 V AC
power socket that has been damaged or
pulled out of the trim could cause serious
injury to you or others.
115 V power socket : provides an AC volt-
age of 115 V so that small electronic devices
can be connected. These devices, such as
games consoles, chargers and laptops,
should not consume more than a maximum of
150 W altogether.
Requirements for operation of these devices:
the 12 V sockets in the rear compartment
R
and the cargo compartment are opera-
tional ( page 257).

R
permissible voltage range.
the temperature of the DC/AC converter is
R
temporarily too high.
some small electronic devices have a con-
R
stant nominal power of less than 150 W,
but a very high switch-on current. In that
case, there is a possibility that these devi-
ces will not function properly as 115 V
socket : is not able to provide a high
enough current.
If indicator lamp ; still does not light up,
