ELECTRONICS POWER OUTLET • There are four 12 Volt power outlets located in the vehicle. Lower left and lower right of the instrument panel - without floor mounted shifter. Inside the top storage tray - with floor mounted shifter. Inside the upper lid of the center storage compartment. Rear of the center console storage compartment - Quad Cab® or Crew Cab. A key symbol on the outlet cover indicates that the key must be in the ON or ACC positions for the outlet to provide power. The battery symbol on the outlet cover indicates that the outlet is connected to the battery, and can provide power at all times. All accessories connected to the outlet(s) should be removed or turned off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the battery against discharge. NOTE: • Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will need to be replaced. • Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other object in the power outlet as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by your warranty. 53
