Map Lamps Battery Run-Down Protection Your vehicle has a battery saver feature designed to protect your vehicle's battery. When any interior lamp is left on and the ignition is turned off, the battery rundown protection system will automatically turn the lamp off after 20 minutes. This will avoid draining the battery. If the radio is on, it will turn off after 10 minutes or if any door on the vehicle is opened. See Retained Accessory Power (RAP) on page 2-16. Accessory Power Outlet(s) The accessory power outlets can be used to connect electrical equipment such as a cellular phone or CB radio. The accessory power outlets are located in front of the center console storage area, at the rear of the center console, and in the rear cargo area. To use the outlets, remove the cover. When not in use, always cover the outlet with the protective cap. Notice: Leaving electrical equipment on for extended periods will drain the battery. Always turn off electrical equipment when not in use and do not plug in equipment that exceeds the maximum amperage rating. Your vehicle may have lamps located on the headliner above the rearview mirror. Push on the lens in the lamp to turn them on and off. Cargo Lamp The cargo lamp is located over the rear compartment, and is controlled by the dome lamp. See Dome Lamp on page 3-16. 3-17
