estrian areas (not on the road) this switch can be

12. USB Accessory socket outlet:
The Rascal
Vecta Sport is equipped with a back-lit USB acces-
sory outlet that can provide power for charging
phones, tablet computers etc. This outlet provides
5 Volts DC at a maximum current of 3 Amperes.
Make sure your accessory does not exceed the
current available
To use the outlet:
Open the weather cap and insert
the USB plug used for powering/charging your par-
ticular device. (Fig.3) When not in use, remove your
USB lead and accessory and replace the cap on the
socket outlet.
Tip:
The USB socket is ready for use once the blue
backlight is visible
(Fig.4).
If for any reason the vehicle
charge drops too low, the socket will turn to a red
backlit colour. In this state the USB outlet will not
function. (This is to preserve vehicle power in case of
very low charge levels).
Warning!
Never connect a device to the
USB socket with a current rating of more than
3 Amps as this may cause the system fuse
to operate.
