Outside Temperature
Because engine temperature can increase the displayed
temperature, temperature readings are slowly updated
when vehicle speed is below 20 MPH (30 km/h).
ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLET
Your vehicle may be equipped with a power outlet. This
is located in the center of the instrument panel if your
vehicle has bench or split bench seats. Accessories pow-
ered through this outlet are protected by a 15 amp fuse.
The outlet may be converted to a cigar lighter by install-
ing the dealer obtained smoker’s package. The outlet is
operated by the ignition switch, when in the “run” or
“acc” positions only. You may convert the outlet from
ignition to battery power by performing the following:
•
Remove the fuse cover from the left end of the
instrument panel (see the paragraph on fuses in sec-
tion 7 of this manual.)
•
Remove fuse #6 (its on the upper right of the fuse
block) from its “IGN” position.
•
Move the fuse slightly right and insert it in the fuse #6
“BAT” location in the fuse block.
•
Reinstall the fuse cover.
