the beverage is hot, it could scald
you and/or your passengers.

The bottle holder equipped on each door
trim can be used to hold beverage bottles
and other items.

Accessory power outlets

are located in the following places.

Power outlet below the climate control
panel

– CONTINUED –

Interior equipment/Accessory power outlets

6-7

(260,1)

Power outlet in the center console

You can use an in-vehicle electrical appli-
ance by connecting it to an outlet.
The maximum power rating of an appli-
ance that can be connected is

120 W

CAUTION

Do not attempt to use a cigarette

lighter in the accessory power
outlets.

Do not place any foreign objects,

especially metal ones such as
coins or aluminum foil, into the
accessory power outlet. That
could cause a short circuit. Al-
ways put the cap on the acces-
sory power outlet when it is not in
use.

Use only electrical appliances

which are designed for 12 V DC.

The maximum power rating of an
appliance that can be connected
is 120 W. Do not use an appliance
which exceeds the indicated wat-
tage for each outlet.

When using appliances con-

nected to two outlets simulta-
neously, the total power con-
sumed by them must not exceed
120 W. Overloading the acces-
sory power outlet can cause a
short circuit. Do not use double
adapters or more than one elec-
trical appliance.

If the plug on your electric appli-

ance is either too loose or too
tight for the accessory power
outlet, this can result in a poor
contact or cause the plug to get
stuck. Only use plugs that fit
properly.

Use of an electric appliance in the

accessory power outlet for a long
period of time while the engine is
not running can cause battery
discharge.

Before driving your vehicle, make

sure that the plug and the cord on
your electrical appliance will not

interfere with your shifting gears
and operating the accelerator
and brake pedals. If they do, do
not use the electrical appliance
while driving.

NOTE

When the lid of the center console is
closed, an opening remains between
the center console and the lid to allow
the power outlet in the center console
to be used. Pass the cord of the
electrical appliance through this open-
ing.

Use with a cigarette lighter
(dealer option)

To use the accessory power outlet as a
cigarette lighter socket, purchase the
cigarette lighter plug, which is an optional
accessory. A cigarette lighter plug is
available from your SUBARU dealer.
The cigarette lighter operates only when
the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “ACC”
position.
To use the cigarette lighter, push in the
knob and wait a few moments. It will
automatically spring up when ready for
use.

WARNING

To avoid being burned, never grasp
the lighter by the end with the
heating element. Doing so could
result in injury and could also da-
mage the heating element.

CAUTION

Do not hold the lighter pushed in,

because it will overheat.

The electrical power socket is

originally designed to use a gen-
uine SUBARU cigarette lighter
plug. Do not use a non-genuine

cigarette lighter plug in the sock-
et. Doing so may cause a short-
circuit and overheating, resulting
in a fire.

If the socket is ever used for a

plug-in accessory such as a cell
phone, that may damage the
portion of the socket’s internal
mechanism that causes a cigar-
ette lighter plug to “pop out” after
its lighter element is heated.
Therefore, do not place a cigar-
ette lighter plug in a socket that
has been used, even once, to
power a plug-in accessory. Doing
so may cause the plug to stick
and overheat, creating a potential
fire hazard.

USB power supply

CAUTION

The specification of a USB term-

inal that can be used is the A-
type. If a different specification of
terminal is connected, power
supply or charging may not be
possible, or the device may mal-
function.

There is a risk that a connected

device may malfunction or data
may be damaged. The connec-
tion of a device shall be per-
formed at your responsibility.

To avoid an electric shock or a

malfunction, observe the follow-
ing precautions.

– Do not connect a USB hub.

– Do not insert any metal or

other foreign object into the
USB terminal.

– Do not spill water or other

liquid on the USB terminal.

Be careful not to pull the con-

nected cable. Doing so could
break the USB terminal and the
connected device.

Interior equipment/USB power supply

(262,1)

If a device is connected for a long

time when the engine is not
running, the battery may be dis-
charged. Even when the engine is
running, we recommend that you
do not connect a device for an
unnecessarily long time.

Do not connect a malfunctioning

device. Doing so may cause the
risk of smoke and fire.

NOTE

The USB power supply is designed

to supply a maximum rated power of DC
5 V/2.1 A or DC 5 V/1 A. Before
connecting a device, be sure to read
the instruction manual of the device
and check whether or not this specifi-
cation of the output is supported by the
device. If a device that requires power
exceeding the maximum rating is con-
nected, power supply or charging may
not be possible. Even if charging could
be completed, the time required for
charging may be longer than when the
genuine charger for that device is used.

Depending on the device, charging

may be possible only when a special
cable is used. In this case, be sure to
connect the device using the special
cable.

When a device that communicates

with a PC is connected, power supply
or charging may not be possible.

When connect a device for charging,

disconnect the device promptly after
charging is completed.

How to use the USB power
supply

Use the USB terminal to use or charge an
electronic device. When the ignition switch
is in the “ACC” or “ON” position, the power
can be supplied to the electronic device.
Up to DC 5 V can be supplied from each to
terminal.

Ashtray (dealer option)

CAUTION

Do not use ashtrays as waste

receptacles or leave a lighted
cigarette in an ashtray. This could
cause a fire.

Always extinguish matches and

cigarettes before putting them
into the ashtray, and then close
the ashtray securely. If you keep
the ashtray open, the fire of the
cigarette may spread to another
cigarette butt and start a fire.

Do not put flammable material in

the ashtray.

Do not leave a lot of cigarette

butts in the ashtray.

NOTE

Particles of ash and tobacco will accu-
mulate around the hinges of the ash-
tray’s inner lid. Clean them off using a
toothbrush or a similar narrow-ended
implement.

The portable ashtray can be installed in
each cup holder or bottle holder. For the
locations of the cup holders, refer to “Cup
holders”

�
