Using the electrical outlets
Using 12 V outlets
1. Remove the stopper (tunnel console) or
fold down the cover (trunk/cargo com-
partment) over the socket and plug in the
device.
The 12 V outlet can be used for devices
intended for this such as MP3 players, cool-
ers and cellular phones.
Bear in mind that using the electrical out-
lets when the engine is off could cause the
starter battery to have too low of a charge
level, which could limit other functionality.
The high-voltage outlet* can be used for devi-
ces intended for this, such as chargers, lap-
tops, etc.
The ignition must be in at least mode I for the
outlets to supply current. The outlets will then
be active as long as there is sufficient charge
in the start battery.
2. Unplug the device and put the stopper
back in (tunnel console) or fold up the
cover (trunk/cargo compartment) when
the socket is not in use or left unattended.
Accessories connected to the electrical
outlets can be activated even when the
vehicle electrical system is off or if precon-
ditioning is used. For this reason, discon-
nect plugs when they are not in use to pre-
vent the starter battery from becoming dis-
charged.
If the engine is turned off and the vehicle is
locked, the outlets will be deactivated. If the
engine is turned off and the vehicle remains
unlocked, the sockets will remain active for up
to 7 minutes.
The maximum power is 120 W (10 A) per
outlet.

Using high-voltage outlets
Do not use accessories with large or
heavy plugs – they could damage the
outlet or come loose while you are driv-
ing.
