CAUTION:
• Holding the cigarette lighter in can
overheat and damage the lighter.
Release the lighter after you push it in.
• To avoid damage to the cigarette lighter socket, do not use it as an accessory power source. Some accessories’ power plug can damage the inner mechanism of the cigarette lighter socket.

You can fit the ashtray into any of the cup holders on the center console.
