Using the electrical outlets

Updated 2024-10-17

The 12 V outlet can be used for devices intended for this such as MP3 players, coolers and cellular phones.

The vehicle must be in Comfort or Drive mode in order for the outlet to deliver current.

The outlet closes automatically when the driver exits the vehicle. If the vehicle remains unlocked, the outlet will remain active for about 10 minutes longer.

Note

Accessories connected to the electrical outlet can be activated even when the vehicle's electrical system is off or if preconditioning is used. For this reason, unplug accessories when they are not being used.

Warning

Do not use accessories with large or heavy plugs – they could damage the outlet or come loose while you are driving.
Do not use accessories that could cause disruptions to e.g. the vehicle's radio receiver or electrical system.
Position the accessory so that there is no risk of it injuring the driver or passengers in the event of heavy braking or a collision.
Pay attention to connected accessories as they can generate heat that could burn passengers or the interior.

Using 12 V outlets

Remove the stopper (tunnel console) or fold down the cover (trunk/cargo compartment1) over the outlet and plug in the device.

Unplug the device and put the stopper back in (tunnel console) or fold up the cover (trunk/cargo compartment1) when the outlet is not in use or left unattended.

Important

The maximum power is 120 W (10 A) per outlet.
