Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: 115 V power socket
WARNING
The 115V AC socket operates at high voltage.
Use the 115V AC socket in the vehicle with
the same caution and prudence that you
exercise when using power outlets at home.
Keep any fluids away from the 115V AC
socket. Do not clean the socket with fluids or
tapered objects. Keep the 115V AC socket
cover in the closed position, when not in use.
Otherwise, you could suffer an electric shock
and be seriously or even fatally injured.
WARNING
Any device that you connect must have a
suitable plug and meet U.S. standards. Never
pull at a cable to disconnect a plug from a
115 V AC power socket. Never use a damaged
connection cable. The 115 V AC power socket
must never be connected to another 115 V
AC power source. Do not use a converter with
an earthed plug for the 115 V AC power
socket. This could cause serious injury to you
and/or other people.
WARNING
If the 115V AC socket is damaged or torn out
of the trim, do not use or touch the 115V AC
socket. Using a 115V AC socket that is
damaged or torn out of the trim could cause
serious personal injury to you and/or others.
115 V socket 1 provides an alternating voltage of 115 V, so that small electronic devices can be connected. These devices, such as games consoles, chargers and laptops, together should not consume more than a maximum of 150 W.
Requirements for operation of these devices:
• the plug of the electronic device must
be
inserted fully into 115 V power socket 1.
• the maximum wattage of the device to be
connected must not exceed 150 W.
• the on-board power supply is within a
permissible volt range.
• the 12 V sockets in the rear and the cargo
compartment are operational.
► Open flap 3.
► Insert the plug of the electronic device
into
115 V power socket 1.
Indicator lamp 2 lights up.
If indicator lamp 2 does not light up, consult the section on malfunctions.
► To turn off: disconnect the plug from
115 V
power socket 1.
Ensure that you do not pull on the cord.
► Close flap 3.
Possible causes of malfunction:
• the on-board power supply is not within
a
permissible volt range.
• the temperature of the DC/AC converter is
temporarily too high.
• some small electronic devices have a
constant nominal power of less than
150 W, but a very high inrush current.
These devices will not work. If you connect such a device, 115 V power socket 1 will not supply it with power.
If indicator lamp 2 still does not light up, contact a specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
