WARNING

Plugging the cord into an
ungrounded outlet could cause an
electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause a fire. You
could be seriously injured. Plug
the cord into a properly grounded
three-prong 110-volt AC outlet.
If the cord will not reach, use a
heavy-duty three-prong extension
cord rated for at least 15 amps.

4. Before starting the engine, be

sure to unplug and store the
cord to prevent damage.

The length of time the heater should
remain plugged in depends on
several factors. Ask a dealer in the
area where you will be parking the
vehicle for the best advice on this.

suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure the vehicle will

that follow. If you are pulling a
trailer, see Driving Characteristics
and Towing Tips on page 9‑70
