Default 12v Power Outlet - RX 330

Guys, I have a 2006 Lexus RX 330.

Everything was fine until one day suddenly 2 of the the power outlet (one at the bottom floor in front and one in the rear side in the boot) stopped working.

I read the manual and it says - advisable not to use all power outlets at same time to avoid blowing up the fuse

is that true ????

whats the point having 3 power outlets if we cannot use them at same time. Even though I need one more for my iPhone, at least I need three power outlets
1. for iPod
2. GPS
3. Portable DVD player for the kid

Since I needed additional points I bought an adapter which allows me to connect three devices on same power outlets, but now I am scared to even use it.

any tips? help?

Also anyone can help me understand how to check/change the fuse, in case that is the reason for the power outlets not working.

The iPhone and GPS probably use very little amps, so I can't imagine that they actually overloaded the circuit.
