WARNING

Improper use of the socket and electrical accessories can cause fires and other severe

injuries.

•

Never leave children in the vehicle unattended. The socket and the devices connected to it

can be used when the ignition is switched on.

•

If the electrical device gets too hot, switch off the device immediately and disconnect it

from the socket.

NOTICE

•

In order to prevent damage to the electrical system, never connect equipment that

generates electricity, such as solar panels or battery chargers for charging the vehicle

battery, to the 12-volt socket.

•

Only use accessories that have been approved in accordance with current guidelines

concerning electromagnetic compatibility.

In order to avoid damage due to voltage fluctuation, always switch off any electrical

consumers connected to the 12-volt socket before switching the ignition or the engine on

or off. When the start/stop system automatically switches off and restarts the engine, it is

not necessary to switch off any connected electrical consumers.

•

Never connect electrical devices requiring more electrical power to a 12-volt socket. The

vehicle's electrical system can be damaged if the maximum power output is exceeded.

Do not leave the engine running when the vehicle is stationary.

Using electrical appliances with the engine switched off and the ignition switched on will

drain the battery.

Unshielded devices can cause interference with radio reception and vehicle electronics.

Interference with AM radio reception could occur if electrical devices are used in the vicinity

of the aerial.

Introduction

Maximum power rating

Electrical socket Maximum power rating

12-volt

120 watts

The maximum power rating of the sockets may not be exceeded. The power rating of each device

is stated on its type plate.

If two or more devices are connected at the same time, ensure that the overall power consumption

of all connected electrical devices never exceeds 190 watts ⇒

12-volt socket

The 12-volt socket is located in the ashtray in the front centre console ⇒ Fig. 92 and works only

when the ignition is switched on.

Using electrical appliances with the engine switched off and the ignition switched on will drain the

battery. Electrical consumers should therefore only be plugged into the sockets when the engine is

running.

To prevent damage due to voltage fluctuation, switch off any connected devices before switching

the ignition or engine on or off.

NOTICE

•

Observe the operating instructions for any device that you plug into the socket.

Never exceed the maximum power rating as this could damage the whole vehicle electrical

system.

•

12-volt socket:

- Only use accessories that have been approved in accordance with the relevant

guidelines on electromagnetic compatibility.

- Never feed electricity into the socket.
