GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

(Continued)
When the vehicle is turned off, be sure to unplug any
equipment as to not drain the battery of the vehicle. All
accessories connected to the outlet(s) should be removed
or turned off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the
battery against discharge.

A 115 Volt (400 Watts maximum) inverter may be located
inside the center console towards the right hand side. This
inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other
low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
Center Console Power Inverter Outlet
There is also a second 115 Volt (400 Watts maximum)
power inverter located on the rear of the center console.
This inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
All power inverters are designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 400 Watts is exceeded,
the power inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device
has been removed from the outlet the inverter should
reset.
Rear Center Console Power Inverter Outlet
NOTE:
400 Watts is the maximum for the inverter, not each
outlet. If three outlets are in use, 400 Watts is shared
amongst the devices plugged in.
If equipped with a front bench seat, there may be a
115 Volt (400 Watts maximum) inverter located to the
right of the center stack, just below the climate controls.
This inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet
should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while driving the
vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.
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 suffi
-
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will discharge the
battery even more quickly. Only use these intermit
-
tently and with greater caution.
After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces
-
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle's battery.
CAUTION!
