The circuit breaker also supplies power to the outlet in the removable floor console, when in the front position. Refer to section 3 “Removable Floor Console” in this manual.

NOTE: If desired, all of the power outlets can be converted by your authorized dealer to provide power with the ignition switch in the OFF position.

CAUTION!

 

 

 

 

• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from

the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e. cellular

 

phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the

 

vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade

 

battery life and/or prevent engine starting.

 

•Accessories that draw higher power (i.e. coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will degrade the battery even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and with greater caution.

•After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a sufficient length of time to allow the alternator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.

•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.
