Accessory Power Outlets

With the accessory power outlet, you can plug in
auxiliary electrical equipment.

The accessory power outlet is located in the center
console storage area.

To use the outlet, the ignition must be in ON or ACC.
Pull down the small cover to access the outlet.

Notice: When using an accessory power outlet,
maximum electrical load must not exceed 15 amps.
Always turn off any electrical equipment when
not in use. Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain your battery.

These circuits are protected by a fuse and have
maximum current levels.

Certain power accessory plugs may not be compatible
to the power accessory outlet and could result in
blown vehicle or adapter fuses. If you experience a
problem see your dealer for additional information on the
power accessory plugs.

Notice: Adding some electrical equipment to your
vehicle can damage it or keep other things from
working as they should. This wouldn’t be covered by
your warranty. Check with your dealer before
adding electrical equipment, and never use anything
that exceeds the amperage rating.

When adding electrical equipment, be sure to follow the
proper installation instructions included with the
equipment.

Notice: Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory
or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper use of
the power outlet can cause damage not covered
by your warranty.
