You can use electrical devices such as flash-
lights, car vacuum cleaners, or the like with
power ratings of up to approx. 200 W at 12 V if
at least one of the following connection points
is provided. Avoid damage to the socket caused
by inserting plugs of the wrong shape or size.

With the non-smoker's equipment package the
socket is covered with a removable cap.

Car phone preparation*
Hands-free system
In vehicles with car phone preparation
*
, the
hands-free microphone is located on the head-
liner near the interior lamp.
For more information on the car phone, refer to
the Owner's Manual for Telephone.
Ski bag*
The ski bag allows the safe and clean transport
of up to four pairs of standard skis or up to two
snowboards.
The ski bag allows you to stow skis up to a
length of up to 6.8 ft/2.1 m. When skis of 6.8 ft/
2.1 m in length are loaded, the ski bag will tend
to narrow, reducing its overall capacity.
Loading
1. Fold down the center armrest, pull off the
cover panel, press the button and disen-
gage the door.
2. Press the button again; the door in the
cargo area opens. If you press the button
firmly the first time, this also opens the door
in the cargo area.
3. Place the ski bag between the front seats
and load.
The zipper facilitates access to the stowed
items.
4. Insert the latch plate of the ski bag retaining
belt into the center safety belt buckle.
Make sure to load only clean skis into the ski
bag. Wrap sharp edges so that no damage
occurs.
