How do I safely use the 110V power outlet in my Ford Maverick?
The power outlet in your Maverick can power devices that use a standard household plug. There are safety precautions and limitations you should be aware of when using this outlet.
Power Outlet Precautions
- Do not keep electrical devices plugged into the power outlet when the device is not in use. The power supply may turn on during a remote start.
- Do not use an extension cord to run multiple devices with the power outlet. Doing so may cause the power outlet to overload, resulting in fire or serious injury.

Power Outlet Limitations
You should not use the power outlet for the following types of electrical devices:
- Cathode-ray tube-type televisions
- Items with high motor loads (e.g., vacuum cleaners, electric saws, and other electric power tools, or compressor-driven refrigerators)
- Measuring devices that process precise data (e.g., medical equipment or measuring equipment)
- Other appliances that require an extremely stable power supply (e.g., microcomputer-controlled electric blankets or touch sensor lamps)
