198 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE ELECTRICAL OUTLET USE WITH ENGINE OFF 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 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 alternator to recharge the vehicle's battery. • Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage. SUN SCREENS- IF EQUIPPED Sun Screens are available for second and third row seating windows. The screens store in the sill trim panels and the tops of the windows are equipped with hooks that the Sun Screen attaches to when pulled out. Sun Screen Retracted
