You can use the power point for
powering electrical devices that
require up to 150 watts. It is on the
rear of the center console.
When the indicator light, located on
the power point, is:
• on — power point is ready to
supply power.
• off — power point power supply is
off; ignition is not on.
• flashing — power point is in fault
mode.
The power point temporarily turns off
power if it exceeds the 150 watt limit.
It can also switch to a fault mode if it
detects overloading, overheating, or
shorting conditions. For overloading
and shorting conditions, unplug your
device and switch the ignition off then
on. For an overheating condition, let
the system cool off first. Switch the
ignition off then on.
Auxiliary Power Points
Do not use the power point for certain
electric devices, including:
• Cathode ray tube type televisions
• Motor loads, for example vacuum
cleaners, electric saws and other
electric power tools, or
compressor-driven refrigerators
• Measuring devices which process
precise data, for example medical
equipment or measuring
equipment
• Other appliances requiring an
extremely stable power supply, for
example
microcomputer-controlled electric
blankets or touch sensor lamps
