UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 195 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 the engine from 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. CIGAR LIGHTER AND ASH RECEIVER - IF EQUIPPED An optional ash receiver is available from your authorized dealer and will fit in the center console front cupholder. The optional ash receiver also comes with a cigar lighter that can be used with the power outlets. Refer to "Power Outlets" in "Understanding the Features of Your Vehicle" for further information. 3
