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 degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these intermit-
tently and with greater caution.

After the use of high power draw accessories, or

long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the
alternator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.

CAUTION!

(Continued)

Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs

only. Do not hang any type of accessory or acces-
sory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage.

POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED

A 110 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet converts DC current

to AC current, and is located on the left rear trim panel

immediately behind the second row left passenger seat.
