CAUTION! (Continued)
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter-
mittently and with great 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
generator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
A 115-Volt (150-Watt) AC power inverter is located on the
rear of the center console for added convenience. The
power inverter can be used to power cell phones, elec-
tronics and other low power devices.
NOTE: Due to built-in overload protection, the power
outlet will shut down if the 115-Volt AC (150-Watt
maximum) power rating is exceeded.
