!

If you use all power outlets in the vehicle,

make sure that the maximum current drawn
does not exceed 55 A.

i

The power outlets can be used to

accommodate 12V DC electrical accessories
(e.g. auxiliary lamps) up to a maximum of 240 W.

If the engine is off, the battery may become dis-
charged if used for long periods of time.

i

You can use the power outlets, except for

the power outlet in the front center console,
even if the ignition is switched off.

An emergency shut-off feature ensures that the
vehicle’s electrical voltage does not fall below a
minimum level. If the voltage drops to this mini-
mum level, the power outlets are automatically
switched off. This ensures that enough power re-
mains to start the engine.

i

Depending on vehicle configuration, the

storage compartment contains an ashtray with
cigarette lighter (

page 323) instead.
