AUX MITSUBISHI I-MIEV 2011 Owner's Manual

WARNING
l Be extremely cautious when working
around the auxiliary battery. It contains
poisonous and corrosive sulphuric acid.
l Improper handling of components and
materials used in the vehicle can endan-
ger your personal safety. We recommend
you to consult a specialist for necessary in-
formation. CAUTION
l
The
components inside the electric motor
unit room might be very hot to touch.
To avoid being burnt, make sure all com-
ponents have sufficiently cooled before be-
ginning an inspection.
These components are affixed with the la-
bel indicating precautions for handling.
Follow the instructions on the label.
l When replacing the auxiliary battery, re-
move the connected positive (+) and nega-
tive (-) terminals after turning the electric
motor switch to the “LOCK” position
and waiting at least 1 minute. If the auxil-
iary battery terminal is removed just af-
ter the electric motor switch is turned to
the “LOCK” position, this may cause dam-
age to components of the electric motor
unit. Bonnet

To open 1. Pull

the release lever towards you to unlock
the bonnet.
LHD (Passenger’s side)
RHD (Driver’s side) 2. Raise
the bonnet while pressing the safety
lock (A). NOTE
l Only

open the bonnet when the wipers are in
the parked position. In any other position,
the wipers could damage the paint or bonnet.
3. Support the bonnet by inserting the support bar (B) into its slot on the underside of the
bonnet arm (C). Vehicle care and Maintenance

Auxiliary battery
E08402300011
The
condition of the auxiliary battery is very impor-
tant to keep the vehicle’s electrical system working
properly. Regular inspection and care are especial-
ly important in cold weather.
Removing and installing the auxiliary
battery upper cover E08402400012
To remove 1. Turn
the plastic nut (A) anticlockwise, and
then remove the auxiliary battery upper cov-
er (B). NOTE
l Be

careful not to lose the removed plastic nut. To install
1. Install
the auxiliary battery upper cover (B)
onto the auxiliary battery, and then push the
plastic nut (A) in the direction shown by the
arrows to secure the cover. CAUTION
l
Be sure to install the auxiliary battery up-
per

cover. Otherwise, the battery electro-
lyte may spill and cause a malfunction.
l When installing the auxiliary battery up-
per cover and plastic nut do not touch the
cooling fan or other moving parts in the
bonnet room.
Be especially careful that the cables, your
clothing or hair, etc., do not get caught in
the cooling fan or other moving parts.
NOTE l Be

sure to install the plastic nut in the correct
direction. Checking auxiliary battery electrolyte
level
E08402500013 Before checking the auxiliary battery electrolyte lev-
el, remove the auxiliary battery’s upper cover.
The

electrolyte level must be between the specified
limit on the outside of the auxiliary battery. Replen-
ish with distilled water as necessary.
The inside of the auxiliary battery is divided into
several compartments; remove the cap from each
compartment and fill to the upper mark. Do not top
up beyond the upper mark because spillage during
driving could cause damage.
Check the electrolyte level at least once every 4
weeks, depending on the operating conditions.
If the auxiliary battery is not used, it will discharge
by itself with time.
Check it once every four weeks and charge with
low current if necessary. Vehicle care and Maintenance

During cold weather
E08402600014
The
capacity of the auxiliary battery is reduced at
low temperatures. This is an inevitable result of its
chemical and physical properties. This is why a
very cold auxiliary battery, particularly one that is
not fully charged will only deliver a fraction of the
starting current which is normally available.
We recommend you to have the auxiliary battery
checked before the start of cold weather and, if nec-
essary, have it charged or replaced.
This does not only ensure reliable starting, but an
auxiliary battery which is kept fully charged also
has a longer life.
Disconnection and connection E08402700015
To disconnect the auxiliary battery cable, stop the
electric

motor unit, first disconnect the negative (-)
terminal and then the positive (+) terminal. When
connecting the auxiliary battery, first connect the
positive (+) terminal and then the negative (-) termi-
nal.
NOTE
l Open the terminal cover (A) before discon-
necting or connecting the positive (+) termi-
nal of the auxiliary battery.
l Loosen the nut (B), and then disconnect the
auxiliary battery cable from the positive (+)
terminal. WARNING
l Keep sparks, cigarettes, and flames away
from the auxiliary battery because the
auxiliary battery could explode.
l When installing the auxiliary battery,
start connection with the positive (+) ter-
minal. If connection is started from the
negative (-) terminal, sparks will occur if
the positive (+) terminal touches any oth-
er parts, and this may cause the auxiliary
battery to explode.
l The auxiliary battery electrolyte is ex-
tremely caustic. Do not allow it to come
in contact with your eyes, skin, clothing,
or the painted surfaces of the vehicle.
Spilt electrolyte should be flushed imme-
diately with ample amounts of water.
Irritation to eyes or skin from contact
with electrolyte requires immediate medi-
cal attention.
l Ventilate when charging or using the aux-
iliary battery in an enclosed space. CAUTION
l
Keep it out of reach of children.
l When

replacing the auxiliary battery, re-
move the connected positive (+) and nega-
tive (-) terminals after turning the electric
motor switch to the “LOCK” position
and waiting at least 1 minute. If the auxil-
iary battery terminal is removed just af-
ter the electric motor switch is turned to
the “LOCK” position, this may cause dam-
age to components of the electric motor
unit.
l Never short-circuit the auxiliary battery.
This could cause it to overheat and be dam-
aged.
l If the auxiliary battery is to be quick-
charged, first disconnect the battery ca-
bles.
l In order to prevent a short circuit, be
sure to disconnect the negative (-) termi-
nal first.
l Always wear protective eye goggles when
working near the auxiliary battery.
l Do not bring the nearby parts, the plastic
parts and so on into contact with sulphu-
ric acid (battery electrolyte) which may
crack, stain or discolour them.
If they are in contact, wipe off with soft
cloth, chamois or the like and an aqueous
solution of neutral detergent then imme-
diately rinse the affected parts with plen-
ty of water. Vehicle care and Maintenance

NOTE
l Keep
the terminals clean. After the auxiliary
battery is connected, apply terminal protec-
tion grease. To clean the terminals, use luke-
warm water.
l Check to see if the auxiliary battery is secure-
ly installed and cannot be moved during trav-
el. Also check each terminal for tightness.
l When the vehicle is to be left unused for a
long period of time, remove the auxiliary bat-
tery and store it in a place where the battery
fluid will not freeze. The auxiliary battery
should be stored only in a fully charged con-
dition.
l It is necessary to adjust the electronic control-
led unit when the auxiliary battery is re-
moved for a long period of time.
Consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point. Tyres
E08402800016 WARNING
l Driving
with tyres that are worn, dam-
aged or improperly inflated can lead to
loss of control or blowout of the tyres
which can result in a collision with seri-
ous or fatal injury. Vehicle care and Maintenance
