CAUTION
To avoid damage to the electrical system, never connect power supplying com-
■
ponents, such as solar panels or battery chargers for charging the vehicle battery,
to the 12-Volt power socket.
Only use accessories that have been tested for electromagnetic compatibility in
■
accordance with the applicable directives.
To prevent damage from power fluctuations, the devices connected to the 12-
■
Volt power socket must be switched off before you switch the ignition on or off
and before starting the engine.
Never connect electrical devices to a 12-Volt power socket that consume more
■
than the specified watts. Exceeding the maximum power consumption may dam-
age the electrical system of the vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
Do not keep the engine running while the vehicle is stationary.
Notice
The vehicle battery will discharge when the ignition is switched on while the en-
gine is stopped and electrical accessories are being used.
Notice
Unshielded devices can cause interference to the radio and to the vehicle elec-
tronics.
Notice
There may be interference in the AM band of the radio if electrical devices are
used near the rear window aerial.

12-Volt power socket
The 12-Volt power socket will only work when ignition is switched on.
The vehicle battery will discharge when the ignition is switched on while the en-
