Default Rubicon switch????

I have a new Rubion Unlimited, and the dash panel below the temp controls there is a switch towards the passenger side that has a logo on it that looks like a wall outlet. I have gone thorugh the book with the JK, as well as the disc for the owners manual and cannot find it listed anywhere.
Anyone out there have this same switch, and if so, what the heck does it do. I also have on on the left of it with a picture of a jeep going down hill.

Look at the front of the console just behind the shifter, should be an outlet there.

Those outlets are nice, you can charge your phone or make you some toast.

Default Switch

I assume I need to use this switch to get power to those outlets? What is the one with the Jeep going downhill for. I just got off the owners manual disc and still do not see it listed anywhere in it.

No toast. Those 115 volt outlets have a 150 watt max. They shut off if you try to use anything more than 150 watts.

The button with the Jeep going down hill is for Hill Desent. It is only on autos and will help give you more engine braking.
