Electrical consumers -> Sockets for Your Volkswagen T-Roc SUV First Generation (2017-2025)

Electrical equipment can be connected to the sockets in the vehicle.  
The 12-volt socket will work only when the ignition is switched on.  
WARNING  
Improper use of the sockets and connected electrical accessories can cause fires and serious or fatal injuries.  
Switch off electrical devices immediately and disconnect them from the power supply if the electrical devices become too warm.  
Please note that sockets and devices connected to them can also be used when the ignition is switched off, e.g. by children in the  
vehicle.  
NOTICE  
Unsuitable, non-approved or incorrectly connected electrical devices can cause damage to the vehicle and the electronic  
components.  
Never connect electrical devices that supply electric power, such as solar panels or a battery charger, to the 12-volt socket to  
charge the 12-volt vehicle battery.  
Use only electrical devices that have been approved in accordance with current guidelines concerning electromagnetic  
compatibility.  
Do not use faulty devices.  
In order to avoid damage due to voltage fluctuations, always switch off any electrical devices before switching the ignition on or  
off and before starting the engine.  
Observe the operating instructions of the electrical devices.  
NOTICE  
The vehicle’s electrical system can be damaged if the maximum power output is exceeded.  
Never connect electrical devices requiring more than the rated power to a 12-volt socket.  
Using electrical consumers with the engine switched off and the ignition switched on will drain the 12-volt battery.  
With some equipment levels, unshielded devices can cause interference with the Infotainment system and vehicle electronics.  
The maximum power of the sockets must not be exceeded. The power consumption of the external devices is specified on their type  
plates.
