    Rear Center Console USB (Charge Only) Port — If Equipped

    Note:

    Depending on vehicle configuration, the USB port may be charge only, or media file capable.

    POWER OUTLETS

    The front power outlet is located under the center stack of the instrument panel. It only operates with the ignition in the ON/RUN position. The power outlet can power mobile phones, electronics and other low power devices.

    12 Volt Power Outlet

    Models equipped with the optional "Smoker Kit”, will have a cigar lighter instead of the power outlet .

    WARNING:

    To avoid serious injury or death:

  • Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.

  • Do not touch with wet hands.

  • Close the lid when not in use and while driving the vehicle.

  • If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and failure.

  • CAUTION:

    Do not connect devices with power higher than 180 Watts (15 Amps) to the socket. Do not damage the socket by using unsuitable adaptors. If the 180 Watt (15 Amp) power rating is exceeded the fuse protecting the system will need to be replaced.

    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.

  • F94 Fuse 15A Blue Instrument Panel Power Outlet

    POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED

    There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt Power Inverter outlet located on the back of the center console to convert DC current to AC current. The Power Inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other low power devices requiring up to 150 Watts. Certain video game consoles will exceed this power limit, as will most power tools.

    115 Volt Power Inverter

     

    The Power Inverter will automatically turn on and off when a device is plugged in or removed.

    In order for the Power Inverter to work, the engine must be running and there must be no faults detected with the alternator.

    The Power Inverter is designed with built-in overload protection. If the power rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the Power Inverter will automatically shut down. Once the electrical device has been removed from the Power Inverter it will automatically reset. To avoid overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electrical devices prior to using the Power Inverter.

    WARNING:

    To avoid serious injury or death:

  • Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.

  • Do not touch with wet hands.

  • Close the lid when not in use.

  • If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and failure.

  • CIGAR LIGHTER — IF EQUIPPED

    Note:

    Cigar lighters can be purchased at an authorized dealer through Mopar® parts.

    The cigar lighter is located under the center stack of the Instrument Panel. Push lighter inward to heat.

    Cigar Lighter

    After a few seconds, the lighter automatically returns to its initial position and is ready to be used.

    WARNING:

    When the cigar lighter is in use it becomes very hot. To avoid serious injury, handle the cigar lighter with care. Always check that the cigar lighter has turned off.

    CAUTION:

    Do not connect devices with power higher than 180 Watts (15 Amps) to the socket. Do not damage the socket by using unsuitable adaptors. If the 180 Watt (15 Amp) power rating is exceeded the fuse protecting the system will need to be replaced.

    ASHTRAY — IF EQUIPPED

    Note:

    Ashtrays can be purchased at an authorized dealer through Mopar® parts.

    The ashtray is a plastic container that can be placed into one of the cup holders.
