Accessory power outlets can be used to connect auxiliary electrical equipment, such as a cellular telephone.

The vehicle may have one outlet located inside the storage bin below the climate control system, one outlet inside the center floor console and two outlets on the rear of the center floor console.

The outlet located inside the storage bin below the climate control system can only use equipment that does not exceed 15 amperes.

Notice: Leaving electrical equipment on for extended periods will drain the battery. Always turn off electrical equipment when not in use and do not plug in equipment that exceeds the maximum 15 ampere rating.

There may also be an accessory power outlet located in the rear of the vehicle near the liftgate. To use an accessory power outlet, remove the protective cap. When not in use, always cover the accessory power outlet with the protective cap.

If the vehicle is the SUT model, there is an accessory power outlet in the rear cargo area on the passenger side of the vehicle.

Notice: Adding any electrical equipment to the vehicle can damage it or keep other components from working as they should. The repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not use equipment exceeding maximum amperage rating of 20 amperes. Check with your dealer/retailer before adding electrical equipment.

Certain power accessory plugs may not be compatible to the accessory power outlets and could result in blown vehicle or adapter fuses. If you experience a problem, see your dealer/retailer for additional information on the accessory power plugs.

The accessory power outlets are powered, even when the ignition is in LOCK/OFF. Continuing to use power outlets while the ignition is in LOCK/OFF may cause the vehicle's battery to run down.

Notice: Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by the warranty. Do not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the plug because the power outlets are designed for accessory power plugs only.
