Information
– The 12-volt plug socket and the connected
electrical accessories function even if the igni-
tion is switched off or the driver's key is removed.
If the engine is not running and the accessories
are switched on, the vehicle battery will be dis-
charged. The power supply is interrupted after
about 30 minutes to protect the vehicle battery.
If the load is to be switched on again, the ignition
must be switched on once.
– The maximum load capacity of a 12-volt plug
socket is 20 A but only if one load is operating.
Do not exceed a 10 A load per 12-volt plug
socket if several loads are operating
simultaneously.
– Unshielded devices and equipment can cause
interference to radio reception and malfunctions
in the vehicle electronics.
