214 FOR PLEASANT DRIVING CAUTION! • Be sure to use a "plug-in" type accessory operating on 12V and at 120W or less. Extended use of electronic equipment with the engine off may run down the battery. • When the accessory socket is not in use, be sure to close the socket cap. This will prevent the socket from becoming clogged and short circuiting. • 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 engine starting. • Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the battery even more quickly. Only use these intermittently 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 generator to recharge the vehicle's battery. CUP HOLDER FRONT SEAT The front holder (A) can be used to accept an ash receiver when an optional smokers kit is purchased from your dealer. The rear holders (B) are provided for use as cupholders.
