There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
located on the instrument panel, to the right of the
radio, to convert DC current to AC current. This
outlet can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to
150 Watts. Certain game consoles will exceed this
power limit, as will most power tools.
Power Inverter Location
To turn on the power inverter outlet, simply plug in
the device. The outlet automatically turns off when
the device is unplugged.
The power inverter is designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter will
automatically shut down. Once the electrical
device has been removed from the outlet the
inverter should automatically reset. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on
electrical devices prior to using the inverter.

Your vehicle may be equipped with two auxiliary
switches located on the instrument panel to the
left of the steering column which can be used to
power various electronic devices. Connections to
the switches are found in the right central pillar
fuse panel at the base of the passenger side
B-pillar.
Auxiliary Switches
Auxiliary Switch 1 is configured to constant battery
feed, while Auxiliary Switch 2 is configured to
ignition feed.
For further information on using the auxiliary
switches, please refer to the Ram Body Builder’s
Guide by accessing
and choosing the appropriate links.
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 generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
CAUTION!
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
