Dodge 2008 KA Nitro Automobile User Manual


 
The rear power outlet (if equipped) is located in the left
rear cargo area.
Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off
WARNING!
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 engine 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 accesso-
ries still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the alternator to
recharge the vehicle’s battery.
Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do
not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket
from the plug.
