One of the sensors for the alarm is located under the cup holder in the center console. Avoid placing coins, keys and other metal objects in the cup holder as this could trigger the alarm.
The USB socket can be used to charge e.g. a cellular phone or tablet or to play media through the vehicle’s audio system.
Using the electrical outlets
The ignition must be in at least mode I for the outlets to supply current. The outlets will then be active as long as there is sufficient charge in the start battery.
If the engine is turned off and the vehicle is locked, the outlets will be deactivated. If the engine is turned off and the vehicle remains unlocked, the sockets will remain active for up to 7 minutes.
Bear in mind that using the electrical outlets when the engine is off could cause the starter battery to have too low of a charge level, which could limit other functionality.
Accessories connected to the electrical outlets can be activated even when the vehicle’s electrical system is off or if preconditioning is used. For this reason, disconnect plugs when they are not in use to prevent the starter battery from becoming discharged.
- Do not use accessories with large or heavy plugs – they could damage the outlet or come loose while you are driving.
- Do not use accessories that could cause disruptions to e.g. the vehicle’s radio receiver or electrical system.
- Position the accessory so that there is no risk of it injuring the driver or passengers in the event of heavy braking or a collision.
- Pay attention to connected accessories as they can generate heat that could burn passengers or the interior.
Using 12 V outlets
- Remove the stopper (tunnel console) or fold down the cover (trunk) over the socket and plug in the device.
- Unplug the device and put the stopper back in (tunnel console) or fold up the cover (trunk) when the socket is not in use or left unattended.
The maximum power is 120 W (10 A) per outlet.
- Only use accessories that are not damaged or malfunctioning. The accessories must be CE marked, UL marked, or have an equivalent safety marking.
- New let outlets, plugs, or accessories come into contact with water or another fluid. Do not touch or use the outlet if it appears damaged or has been in contact with water or another fluid.
- Do not connect power strips, adapters, or extension cords to the outlet as this could cause the outlet’s safety functions to malfunction.
Failure to follow the above could lead to severe or fatal electrical shocks.
Using the glove compartment
Locking and unlocking the glove box
The glove compartment can be locked when the vehicle is left at a workshop, hotel, etc. The glove compartment can then only be locked/unlocked with the glove compartment key.

Using the glove box as a cooled area
The glove compartment can be used to cool e.g. drinks or food. Cooling is possible when the climate system is active (i.e. when the ignition is in mode II or when the engine is running).
- Activate or deactivate cooling by moving the control as far as possible toward the passenger compartment/glove compartment.
