Power Outlets

Accessory power outlets can be used to plug in electrical equipment, such as a cell phone or MP3 player.

There are three accessory power outlets. The power outlets located below the climate control system, inside the center console storage bin, and on the rear of the center console are powered while the vehicle is in ON/RUN, START or ACC/ACCESSORY mode, or until the driver door is opened within 10 minutes of turning off the vehicle.

On the CTS Wagon there is an additional accessory power outlet located near the rear cargo net that is powered at all times.

Remove the cover to access and replace when not in use.
