Using the electrical outlets
The 12 V outlet can be used for devices
intended for this such as MP3 players, cool-
ers and cellular phones.
The high-voltage outlet* can be used for devi-
ces intended for this, such as chargers, lap-
tops, etc.
The ignition must be in at least mode I for the
outlets to supply current. The outlets will then
be active as long as there is sufficient charge
in the start battery.
If the engine is turned off and the vehicle is
locked, the outlets will be deactivated. If the
engine is turned off and the vehicle remains
unlocked, the sockets will remain active for up
to 7 minutes.

NOTE
Bear in mind that using the electrical out-
lets when the engine is off could cause the
starter battery to have too low of a charge
level, which could limit other functionality.
Accessories connected to the electrical
outlets can be activated even when the
vehicle electrical system is off or if precon-
ditioning is used. For this reason, discon-
nect plugs when they are not in use to pre-
vent the starter battery from becoming dis-
charged.
WARNING
Do not use accessories with large or
•
heavy plugs – they could damage the
outlet or come loose while you are driv-
ing.
Do not use accessories that could
•
cause disruptions to e.g. the vehicle's
radio receiver or electrical system.
Position the accessory so that there is
•
no risk of it injuring the driver or pas-
sengers in the event of heavy braking
or a collision.
Pay attention to connected accessories
•
as they can generate heat that could
burn passengers or the interior.
