Electric Power Outlets
The vehicle is equipped with three or
four 12 Volt (13 Amp) electric power
outlets, one or two available for each
front seat, one for rear seat passengers
and one fitted in the trunk.
In vehicles equipped with "Smoking
Kit" one of the front seat electric
power outlets is replaced with a
cigarette lighter.
All power outlets are supplied only
when the engine is started or the
ignition device set on ACC or RUN.
Power outlets are protected by a fuse.
Insert an accessory plug into the power
outlets to ensure proper operation.
Otherwise, check the matching fuse
integrity, see "Fuse Replacement" in
section 7 for further information.
CAUTION!
• Do not plug in accessories that
exceed the maximum power of 160
Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts.
• Power outlets are designed for
accessory plugs only. Do not insert
any other object in the power outlets
as this will damage the outlet and
blow the fuse. Damages caused by
improper use of the power outlet are
not covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Only devices designed for use in this
type of outlet should be inserted
into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Replacing the fuses that protect
power outlets with others of higher
amperage, there is the risk of fire.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lids when the plug is not
used and while driving the vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may
cause an electric shock and failure.
