Accessory power socket J Electrical power socket on the left-lower part of the instrument panel CAUTION The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the instrument panel is designed to use only a SUBARU genuine cigarette lighter plug. Do not use non-genuine cigarette lighter plugs or any "plug-in" type electrical accessories in the socket. Doing so many cause a short-circuit and overheating, resulting in a fire. Refer to the cigarette lighter section in this chapter. J Accessory power socket in the luggage compartment and dual power socket (option) D Do not attempt to use a cigarette lighter in the accessory socket or dual power socket. D Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such as coins or aluminum foil, into the accessory socket or dual power socket. That could cause a short circuit. Always put the cap on the accessory socket and dual power socket when it is not in use. D Use only electrical appliances which are designed for 12V DC and which consume less than 120W. Overloading the accessory socket or dual power socket can cause a short circuit. Do not use double adapters or more than one electrical appliance. CAUTION - CONTINUED - 6-19
