Dodge Charger: INTERIOR STORAGE AND EQUIPMENT / Power Outlets
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (15 Amp) power outlets that can be used
to power cellular phones, small electronics and other low powered electrical accessories.
The power outlets are labeled with either a “key” or a “battery” symbol to indicate
how the outlet is powered. Power outlets labeled with a “key” are powered when the
ignition is in the ON or ACC position, while the outlets labeled with a “battery”
are connected directly to the battery and powered at all times.
NOTE:
All accessories connected to the “battery” powered outlets should be removed
or turned off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the battery against discharge.
CAUTION!
Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any
other object in the power outlets as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse.
Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
The front power outlet is located inside the storage area on the center stack
of the instrument panel.

In addition to the front power outlet, there is also a power outlet located in
the storage area of the center console.

If the Media Hub is in use, do not exceed the maximum power of 100 Watts (8 Amps)
for the center console power outlet. When the Media Hub is not in use, the outlet
can deliver up to 160 Watts (13 Amps). If the power rating is exceeded, the fuse
protecting the system needs to be replaced.
NOTE:
The instrument panel power outlet and dual rear console USB ports can be changed
to “battery” (powered all the times) by moving the #12 20 Amp fuse from “IGN” to
“B+”.

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
- Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet should be inserted
into any 12 Volt outlet.
- Do not touch with wet hands.
- Close the lid when not in use and while driving the vehicle.
- If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
- 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 the engine from 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 accesso- ries 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 alternator to recharge
the vehicle's battery.
- Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not hang any
type of acces- sory or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage.
On some vehicles the front and/or rear cupholders are equipped with a light ring
that illuminates the cupholders. The brightness of the light rings are controlled
by the Dimmer Control...
Other information:
The Advanced Front Air Bag system has multistage driver and front passenger air
bags. This system provides output appropriate to the severity and type of collision
as determined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), which may receive information
from the front impact sensors (if equipped) or other system components...
Children who are large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably, and whose
legs are long enough to bend over the front of the seat when their back is against
the seatback, should use the seat belt in a rear seat. Use this simple 5-step test
to decide whether the child can use the vehicle’s seat belt alone:
Can the child sit all the way back against the back of the vehicle seat?
Do the child’s knees bend comfortably over the front of the vehicle seat
– while the child is still sitting all the way back?
Does the shoulder belt cross the child’s shoulder between the neck and arm?
Is the lap part of the belt as low as possible, touching the child’s thighs
and not the stomach?
Can the child stay seated like this for the whole trip?
If the answer to any of these questions was “no,” then the child still needs
to use a booster seat in this vehicle...
