When the indicator light, located on the
power outlet, is:
•
On and the light is solid — the power
outlet is available or the plugged in
device is within the power range and
does not exceed the outlet's power
limits.
• Three flashes and off — the power
outlet is overloading.
• Off — the power outlet power supply
is off; ignition is not on.
• Constant flashing — the power outlet
is in fault mode, and requires you to
restart your vehicle.
The power outlet temporarily turns off
power when in fault mode if the device
