tunnel console's storage compartment and
beside the cup holder.
12 V socket in tunnel console, front seat.
The electrical sockets can be used for various
accessories designed for 12 V, e.g. screens,
music players and mobile phones. For the socket
to supply current, the remote control key must be
in at least key position I (p. 81).
WARNING
Always leave the plug in the socket when the
socket is not in use.
NOTE
Optional equipment and accessories - e.g.
display screens, music players and mobile
phones - which are connected to one of the
passenger compartment's 12V electrical
sockets could be activated by the climate
control system, even when the remote control
key has been removed or when the car is
locked, for example, when the engine block
and passenger compartment heater* is acti-
vated at a preset time.
For this reason remove the plugs from the
electrical sockets for optional equipment or
accessories when not in use because the bat-
tery could be drained in the event of such an
occurrence!
