Power Outlets

12V power outlets are located in the lower part of the instrument panel and in the luggage area.

Warning

Take care as the power outlet and plug may be hot during or immediately after use.

Caution

  • This power outlet is not designed for use with a cigarette lighter unit.
  • Do not use with accessories that exceed a 12 volt, 120W (10A) power draw. Do not use double adaptors or more than one electrical accessory.
  • Use this power outlet with the engine running (do not use for extended periods of time with the engine stopped or idling).
  • When not in use, be sure that the cap is closed. Do not allow water to come into contact with the outlet.
  • Before inserting or disconnecting a plug, be sure to turn off the power switch of the electrical accessory being used or switch the ignition OFF.
  • Fully push the plug in sufficiently. If sufficient contact is not made, the plug may overheat or the internal temperature fuse may blow.

USB (Universal Serial Bus) Rear Power Ports (where fitted)

Two USB power ports (where fitted) are provided on the rear of the console box/armrest unit. These ports are for power supply only. They do not support data transfer.

The maximum output current for each port is 3.0A. Actual output current will depend on the device connected to the port(s). The charger will provide the appropriate current value based on the protocol used by the mobile device.

The external device will be charged continuously while the ignition is ON. Some mobile devices cannot be charged depending on their specifications.

Note

There are two USB data connection ports (where fitted) in the console box. See “USB (Universal Serial Bus) connection ports”.

Caution

  • Do not force a USB device into the connector. Inserting the USB device tilted or upside-down may damage the connector.
  • Do not use a reversible USB cable. Using such a cable may damage the connector.

Wireless Charger (where fitted)

The wireless charger is located on the front of the centre console. Lay the smartphone on the <Qi> logo on the charging pad. Charging will start automatically. The smartphone will be charged continuously while the ignition is ON.

Wireless Charger Indicator

The indicator illuminates in orange when the charging process starts.

Operation of the Wireless Charger

To use the wireless charger, seat the smartphone properly within the charging pad. To maximise charging performance, ensure the smartphone is fully seated in the centre of the charging pad over the <Qi> logo.

Because the location of the power receiver may vary depending on the smartphone, you may need to adjust the position to find the optimal charging area.

Some smartphone cases or accessories may adversely affect charging. Remove them before wireless charging.

Turn off the vibration function of the smartphone before wireless charging.

Note

  • Only a <Qi> certified smartphone can be used.
  • The smartphone may become warm during the charging process and charging may stop due to the protection function of the device.
