Ashtrays and Cigarette Lighter Your vehicle may have ashtrays and a cigarette lighter. The front ashtray may be on the instrument panel or on the console. To remove the instrument panel ashtray, open it, push down on the locking tab and pull out the ashtray. To remove the console ashtray, open the ashtray door, lift up on the ashtray and pull it out. If your vehicle is equipped with a center console, a rear ashtray may be located behind a small door at the rear of the console. Push on the right side of the door. The ashtray will then turn to the right for usage. You can only access the ashtray by pushing on the door's right side. To remove the ashtray, push down on the snuffer located in the middle of the ashtray and lift it out. Notice: Don't put papers or other flammable items into your ashtrays. Hot cigarettes or other smoking materials could ignite them, causing a damaging fire. To use the lighter, just push it in all the way and let go. When it's ready, it will pop back out by itself. Notice: Don't hold a cigarette lighter in with your hand while it is heating. If you do, it won't be able to back away from the heating element when it's ready. That can make it overheat, damaging the lighter and the heating element. 3-21
