12-volt sockets
12-volt socket in the front tunnel console
12-volt socket in the rear center console
The electrical sockets can be used for 12-volt accessories such as cell phone chargers and coolers. For the socket to supply current, the ignition must be in at least mode I, see page 82.
The maximum current consumption is 10A (120W) if only one of the 12-volt sockets in the passenger compartment is in use. If both the front and rear sockets are used at the same time, the maximum current consumption per socket is 7.5A (90W).
The auxiliary sockets can also be used to power a cigarette lighter. Accessory cigarette lighters and ashtrays can be purchased from your Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Always keep the sockets covered when not
in use.

Fold down the cover to access the electrical socket.
NOTE
The 12-volt socket in the cargo area provides
electrical current even when the ignition
is switched off. Using the socket while
the engine is not running will drain the battery.
