Where is the cigarette lighter located in the Geely Boyue?

The Geely Boyue is equipped with three power outlets for cigarette lighters, located in the center console armrest, the rear air vent area, and the trunk. The metal outer shell of the cigarette lighter serves as the negative terminal, while the central heating wire acts as the positive terminal. When the lighter is inserted and pressed down to lock, the heating element contacts the positive terminal of the socket, initiating the heating process. Once the heating element reaches the required temperature, the temperature-sensitive spring deforms, releasing the lighter, which then pops out. Here’s how to use the cigarette lighter: Open the car door: Sit in the driver’s seat and locate any of the three cigarette lighters. Press the cigarette lighter to heat: When you need to light a cigarette, press the lighter down. Wait for it to heat up, after which it will automatically pop out with the other end glowing red, ready for use. Additionally, adjust the spring angle of the voltage regulator moderately—just enough to lock the lighter in place for heating. Avoid excessive angles, as they may hinder insertion and removal. Insert and remove the lighter vertically without shaking it, as frequent wiggling during removal can lead to loosening, short circuits, and damage to fuses or external devices.

The cigarette lighter in the Geely Boyue is typically located in the front center console area, near the gear shift lever or armrest. When I drive it myself, I notice it's designed very ergonomically, making it easy to reach. Specifically, when you sit in the driver's seat and look down at the lower part of the center console panel, around knee height, there's a round socket—that's the cigarette lighter port. Besides lighting cigarettes, many people also use it to connect phone chargers or portable air pumps, especially useful during long trips. If you can't find it at first, turn on the interior light to check or refer to the user manual for details. The position of the Boyue's cigarette lighter is relatively stable and hasn't changed much, maintaining a simple layout for smoother operation, which reduces distraction risks during daily driving. Regularly cleaning this socket to avoid dust buildup ensures more reliable device connections and safer driving.

As a seasoned driver who has owned several Geely models, I find the cigarette lighter design in the Boyue quite practical, primarily located in the area between the front center armrest and the gear shift. Once you're in the car, placing your hand on the front side of the armrest allows you to easily feel the circular socket. Its position is slightly low but doesn't obstruct the view, making it convenient to plug and unplug devices while driving. This arrangement is common in SUVs, avoiding interference from the steering wheel. I often use it to charge my navigation phone, especially during rainy-day road trips, ensuring the device stays powered to minimize the hassle of taking wrong turns. Although the cigarette lighter isn't used frequently, maintaining its functionality is crucial. I recommend regularly checking the fuse to prevent accidental device burnout. If the position seems altered, note that higher-end versions like the Boyue PRO might have minor adjustments, but the core design remains focused on practicality.

The cigarette lighter in the Boyue is generally located at the lower end of the front center console, near the gear shift. During my daily driving, I find it quite easy to locate - just reach out and feel for the socket. Nowadays, this port is mostly used for charging devices, but remember not to overload it to avoid short circuits.
