WARNING!

(Continued)

• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while

programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains
Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon
Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled and can cause you and others to
be severely injured or killed.

POWER OUTLETS

• There are two 12 Volt electrical outlets on this vehicle.

• The outlet on the front console has power available only when the ignition is in

the ON/RUN position. If desired, this outlet can be converted by your
authorized dealer to provide power with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position.

• The second outlet in the center console is powered directly from the battery

(power available at all times). Items plugged into this outlet may discharge the
battery and/or prevent engine starting.

NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160

Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will
need to be replaced.

• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other

object in the power outlet as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse.
Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by your new
vehicle warranty.
