Dodge 25360 Stratus Coupe Automobile User Manual


 
CAUTION!
Be sure to use a “plug-in” type accessory operat-
ing on 12V and at 120W or less.
Extended use of electronic equipment with the
engine off may run down the battery.
When the accessory socket is not in use, be sure to
close the socket cap. This will prevent the socket
from becoming clogged and short circuiting.
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 inter-
mittently 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.
