Ashtrays and Cigarette Lighter
Push and release the cover to reveal the front ashtray
and cigarette lighter.
NOTICE:
Don’t put papers and other things that burn
into your ashtrays. If you do, cigarettes or
other smoking materials could set them on
fire, causing damage.
To clean an ashtray, make sure the cover is open fully,
then lift out the ashtray by pulling on the snuffer.
To use a lighter, push the center all the way in and let it
go. When it’s ready, the center will pop back out by
itself. Pull out the entire unit to use it.
NOTICE:
Don’t hold a cigarette lighter in with your hand
while it is heating. If you do, it won’t be able to
back away from the heating element when it’s
ready. That can make it overheat, damaging the
lighter and the heating element.
The cigarette lighter will only operate when the ignition
is in ON and for 10 minutes after turning the ignition
off. If you would like the lighter to operate regardless
of the ignition position, and for extended periods of
time, see “Engine Compartment Fuse Block” in the
Index or see your dealer.
Leaving an accessory on for a long period of time can
drain the vehicle’s battery.
