Your vehicle may be equipped with a cigarette lighter receptacle.

To use the lighter, push it in all the way and let go. When it is ready, it will pop back out by itself.

This receptacle can also be used as an Auxiliary Power Outlet to connect electrical equipment such as a cellular phone or CB radio.

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 amperage rating of 20 amperes.

Certain electrical accessories may not be compatible with the cigarette lighter power outlet and could result in blown vehicle or adapter fuses.

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.

When adding electrical equipment, be sure to follow the installation instructions included with the equipment.

Notice: Improper use of the cigarette lighter power outlet can cause damage not covered by your warranty. Do not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the plug. The cigarette lighter power outlet is designed for accessory or as a cigarette lighter only.
