12 V socket
You can use the 12 V socket to power various electrical devices, such as a cooler box.
The 12 V electrical socket is on the right-hand side in the boot.
The car turns off power to the socket automatically when you leave the car. If you leave the car unlocked, the socket remains active for a while longer.
Always disconnect devices from the socket and close the cover when not in use.
Some devices may become hot when charged through the 12 V socket. This is normal for many devices.
Warning
Failure to observe the following instructions could cause damage or personal injury.
- Do not use electrical devices with large, heavy plugs. They can damage the socket or come loose while driving.
- Do not use electrical devices that could interfere with the car's systems, such as the radio receiver.
- Only connect undamaged and fully working devices that meet all relevant safety standards1.
- Keep an eye on connected devices to prevent damage or injury if they malfunction.
- Do not connect adaptors or extension cables to the 12 V socket as these can override the socket's safety features.
- Do not expose the socket, connectors or connected devices to water or other liquids.
- Do not touch or use the socket if it appears to be damaged or has come into contact with water or other liquids.
