Warning!

G

Never touch the heating element or sides of

the cigarette lighter; they are extremely hot.

Hold the knob only.

Make sure that any children traveling with

you do not injure themselves or start a fire

with the hot cigarette lighter.

When leaving the vehicle, always remove the

SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*

from the starter switch, take it with you, and

lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unat-

tended in the vehicle, or with access to an

unlocked vehicle. A child’s unsupervised ac-

cess to a vehicle could result in an accident

and/or serious personal injury.

!

The lighter socket can accommodate 12V

DC electrical accessories (up to a maximum of
85 W) designed for use with the standard “ciga-
rette lighter” plug type. Keep in mind, however,
that connecting accessories to the lighter socket
(for example extensive connecting and discon-
necting, or using plugs that do not fit properly)
can damage the lighter socket. With the socket
damaged, the lighter may no longer be able to be
placed in the heating (pushed-in) position, or the
lighter may pop out too early with the lighter not
hot enough.

To help avoid damaging the cigarette lighter
socket, we recommend connecting 12V DC elec-
trical accessories designed for use with the stan-
dard “cigarette lighter” plug type to the 12V
power outlet (

page 283) in your vehicle when-

ever possible.
