Chevrolet 2010 Impala Automobile User Manual


 
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
The vehicle has three 12volt outlets which can be
used to plug in electrical equipment, such as a cellular
telephone.
On vehicles with a center console, one outlet is located
inside the center floor console and two outlets are
located at the front of the console bin under the
instrument panel. Lift the cover to access the outlet.
Close the cover when not using the outlet.
On vehicles without a center console, two are located
under the climate controls and another outlet for the
rear seat passengers is at the rear of the center front
seat. Remove the cover to access the outlets. When
not using the outlet, make sure the cover is closed.
Notice: Leaving electrical equipment plugged in for
an extended period of time while the vehicle is off
will drain the battery. Power is always supplied to
the outlets. Always unplug electrical equipment
when not in use and do not plug in equipment that
exceeds the maximum 20 ampere rating.
Certain accessory plugs may not be compatible to
the accessory power outlet and could result in blown
vehicle and adapter fuses. If you experience a problem,
see your dealer for additional information on the power
accessory plugs.
Notice: Adding any electrical equipment to the
vehicle can damage it or keep other components
from working as they should. The repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not use
equipment exceeding maximum amperage rating of
20 amperes. Check with your dealer before adding
electrical equipment.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure to follow
the proper installation instructions included with the
equipment. Check with your dealer before adding
electrical equipment, and never use anything that
exceeds the maximum amperage rating of 20 amps.
Notice: Improper use of the power outlet can cause
damage not covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not
hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket
from the plug because the power outlets are
designed for accessory power plugs only.
