Controls in detail Useful features ! The lighter socket can accommodate 12 V DC electrical accessories (up to a maximum of 180 W) designed for use with the standard "cigarette lighter" plug type. Keep in mind, however, that connecting accessories to the lighter socket (for example extensive connecting and disconnecting, or using plugs that do not fit properly) can damage the lighter socket.
