Cigarette lighter
Depending on vehicle configuration your
vehicle is equipped with a cigarette lighter
and an ashtray ( page 321) located in the
front center console and an ashtray locat-
ed in front of the second-row seats
( page 322).
Warning!
Never touch the heating element or sides of
the cigarette lighter; they are extremely hot.
Hold the knob only.
Make sure that any children traveling with
you do not injure themselves or start a fire
with the hot cigarette lighter.
When leaving the vehicle always remove the
SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*
from the starter switch, take it with you, and
lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unat-
tended in the vehicle, or with access to an
unlocked vehicle. A child's unsupervised
access to a vehicle could result in an
accident and/or serious personal injury.
Switch on the ignition ( page 42).

Useful features
!
The lighter socket can accommodate
12V DC electrical accessories (up to a maximum
of 180 W) designed for use with the standard
"cigarette lighter" plug type. Keep in mind, how-
ever, that connecting accessories to the lighter
socket (for example extensive connecting and
disconnecting, or using plugs that do not fit prop-
erly) can damage the lighter socket. With the
socket damaged, the lighter may no longer be
able to be placed in the heating (pushed-in) posi-
tion, or the lighter may pop out too early with the
lighter not hot enough.
To help avoid damaging the cigarette lighter
socket, we recommend connecting 12V DC elec-
trical accessories designed for use with the stan-
dard "cigarette lighter" plug type to the 12V
power outlets ( page 324) in your vehicle
whenever possible.
i
If the engine is off, and the cigarette lighter
is being used extensively, the vehicle battery
may become discharged.
