CAUTION!
•
Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when not in
use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent the engine from starting.
•
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will degrade the bat-
tery even more quickly. Only use these intermit-
tently and with greater caution.
•
After the use of high power draw accessories, or
long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the alter-
nator to recharge the vehicle's battery.
•
Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs
only. Do not hang any type of accessory or acces-
sory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage.
POWER INVERTERS — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 V (400 W) maximum inverter outlet
located on the back of the center console to convert
Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC).
This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 W.
Certain video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
There may also be a second 115 V (400 W) maximum
exterior power inverter located on the rear right side of
the truck bed near the tailgate. This inverter can be
turned on by the Instrument Panel Power Inverter
switch located to the left of the steering wheel. This
inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 W.
Certain video game consoles exceed this limit, as will
most power tools. The indicator light on the power
inverter switch will be illuminated when the inverter is
turned on.
NOTE:
400 W is the maximum for the inverter, not each outlet.
If two outlets are in use, 400 W is shared amongst the
devices plugged in.
