UTLETS

Your vehicle is equipped with one 12 Volt

(13 Amp) power outlet on the instrument panel

and one 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlet in the

center console that can be used to power cellular

phones, small electronics and other low powered

electrical accessories. The power outlets are

labeled with either a “key” symbol or a “battery”

symbol to indicate how the outlet is powered.

Power outlets labeled with a key symbol are

powered when the ignition switch is in the ACC or

ON/RUN position, while the outlets labeled with a

battery symbol are connected directly to the

battery and powered at all times.

NOTE:

All accessories connected to the battery powered

outlets should be removed or turned off when the

vehicle is not in use to protect the battery against

discharge.
The front power outlet is located inside the storage

area on the center stack of the instrument panel.

Front Power Outlet

In addition to the front power outlet, there is also a

power outlet located in the storage area of the

center console.

Center Console Power Outlet

NOTE:

If the Media Hub is in use, do not exceed the

maximum power of 100 Watts (8 Amps) for the

center console power outlet. When the Media Hub

is not in use, the outlet can deliver up to 120 Watts

(10 Amps). If the power rating is exceeded, the

fuse protecting the system will need to be

replaced.
The instrument panel power outlet and dual rear

console USB ports can be changed to battery

powered at all times by moving the #12 20 Amp

fuse from “IGN” to “B+”. These fuses are located in

the fuse box in the trunk, below the load floor.

WARNING!

Do not place ashes inside the cubby bin located

on the center console on vehicles not equipped

with the ash receiver tray. A fire leading to bodily

injury could result.

WARNING!

To avoid serious injury or death:



Only devices designed for use in this type of

outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt

outlet.



Do not touch with wet hands.



Close the lid when not in use and while driving

the vehicle.



If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an

electric shock and failure.

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.). Eventu

ally, 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 intermittently 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.



Power outlets are designed for accessory

plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory

or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper

use of the power outlet can cause damage.

UFFETING

Wind buffeting can be described as the perception

of pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound

in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting

with the windows down, or the sunroof (if

equipped) in certain open or partially open

positions. This is a normal occurrence and can be

minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear

windows open, open the front and rear windows

together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting

occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof

opening to minimize the buffeting or open any

window.

Occupants, particularly unattended children,

can become entrapped by the power sunroof

while operating the power sunroof switch.

Such entrapment may result in serious injury

or death.



In a collision, there is a greater risk of being

thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.

You could also be seriously injured or killed.

Always fasten your seat belt properly and

make sure all passengers are also properly

secured.



Do not allow small children to operate the

sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body

parts, or any object, to project through the
