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.
Power Inverter — If Equipped
If equipped, a 115 Volt (400 Watts
Maximum) inverter may be located inside the
center console towards the right hand side,
just under the Wireless Charging Pad (if
equipped). This inverter can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power
devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain high-end 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
M
aximum)
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
high-end 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.
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
sufficiently 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 intermittently
and with greater caution.
After the use of high power draw acces-
sories, or long periods of the vehicle not
being sta
rted (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.
