Operation
USB power sockets
Depending on the equipment and the coun-
try, the v
ehicle may also have USB connec-
tions exclusively for charging or as a power
socket.
These USB ports are located at the rear of
the console, between the front seats . These
connectors can work at a maximum power of
up to 10.5 W per port.
They are not intended for file playback.
230 volt power socket
With the engine running, the power socket
Fig. 149 activates automatically as soon
as a connector is plugged in. If there is
enough power available, the socket can still
be used while the engine is off
Connect an electrical device: Open the co
v-
er and insert the plug into the power socket
as far as possible to unlock the built-in child
lock. The socket only supplies power once
the child lock is unlocked.

Steady green
light:
The childproof lock is unlocked.

et is ready to operate.
LED on the power socket
Flashing green
light:
The ignition is switched off, but
ther
e is enough power available
to continue supplying the socket
with current for a maximum of 10
minutes. If the connector is un-
plugged before this time elap-
ses, the socket is disconnected
and cannot be used again until
the ignition is switched on again.
Flashing red
light:
There is an anomaly, e.g. dis-
connection due t
o a current
surge or overheating.
Disconnection due to overheating
When the t
emperature exceeds a certain val-
ue, the 230 volt socket inverter is automati-
cally disconnected. The disconnection pre-
vents overheating when the power consump-
tion of the connected devices is excessive or
the ambient temperature is very high. The
230-volt power supply can be used once
again after a cooling time. First unplug the
connector of the connected device and then
plug it back in again. This prevents the elec-
trical device from being switched on again if
this is not wanted.
WARNING
The electrical system is under high voltage!
Do not spill liquids onto the socket.
Do not plug adapters or extension cords
int
o the 230 volt power socket. Otherwise,
the integrated child lock will be unlocked
and the po
wer socket will operate.
Do not insert conductive objects (a knit-
ting needle, for example) into the 230 volt
power socket.
WARNING
The power socket works only when the igni-
tion is on. Impr
oper use may cause serious
injury or even fire. Children should there-
fore not be left in the vehicle unattended if
the button is also left behind. Otherwise
there is a possibility that they may be in-
jured.
CAUTION
Always use the correct type of plugs to
av
oid damaging the sockets.
CAUTION
230 v
olt power socket:
Do not leave devices or connectors
that are too heavy (e.g. a transformer)
hanging directly from the power sock-
et.
Do not connect neon lamps.
Only connect devices to the socket if
the device and socket voltage match.
The built-in overload disconnect func-
tion prevents any electrical devices
that require a high start-up current
