radio MITSUBISHI iMiEV 2013 Owner's Manual (in English)

l
Since the air conditioning (cooling or heat-
ing) consumes power of the traction battery,
its operation results in a shorter cruising
range. Maintain an appropriate temperature.
l Put the selector lever to the “B” (BRAKE) or
“C” (COMFORT) position according to the
road condition. To charge the traction battery
with appropriate use of regenerative braking
can increase the cruising range. Installation of accessories
E00200301003
We
recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l The installation of accessories, optional
parts, etc., should only be carried out within
the limits prescribed by law in your country,
and in accordance with the guidelines and
warnings contained within the documents ac-
companying this vehicle.
l Installing electric components incorrectly
could lead to a fire. See the “Modification/al-
terations to the electrical systems” section
within this owner’s manual.
l Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the
vehicle without an external antenna may
cause electrical system interference, which
could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
l Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifi-
cations must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for in-
formation regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the mar-
ket, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI
MOTORS, but also for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point, to check whether the at-
tachment or installation of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorized, for
example
by a “general operators permit” (an ap-
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construc-
tion, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it can-
not be deduced from that alone, that the driving safe-
ty of your vehicle has not been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maxi-
mum safety can only be ensured with parts recom-
mended, sold and fitted or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS authorized Service Point
(MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine replacement
parts and MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories).
The same also pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the produc-
tion specifications. For safety reasons, do not at-
tempt any modifications other than those that fol-
low the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS authorized Service Point. General information

MiEV Remote System*
E08301800034
The
MiEV Remote System has the following three
functions.
l Timer Charging
When the EV charging cable (regular
charger) is connected, the batteries will
only charge during the pre-set time peri-
od selected using the MiEV Remote.
l Remote Climate Control
When the EV charging cable (regular
charger) is connected, the air-conditioner
can be activated for up to 30 minutes pri-
or to using the vehicle. This feature can
be used to cool or heat the car and to acti-
vate the front and rear window defroster.
l Traction Battery Level Indicator
The charge remaining in the traction bat-
tery can be confirmed through the MiEV
Remote.

Remote WARNING
l Individuals
who use implantable pace-
makers or implantable cardiovascular-de-
fibrillators should keep away from the ex-
ternal and internal transmitters. The elec-
tromagnetic waves used in the MiEV Re-
mote System may affect the operation of
implantable pacemakers and implantable
cardiovascular defibrillators.
l Individuals using other electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak-
ers and implantable cardiovascular defib-
rillators should check with the manufac-
turer of the apparatus to confirm the ef-
fect of the electromagnetic waves used by
the MiEV Remote System. The electro-
magnetic waves may affect the operations
of the electro-medical apparatus.
l Never use the MiEV Remote near medi-
cal equipment. Electromagnetic waves
could adversely affect the medical equip-
ment.
l Keep the MiEV Remote in the place
where children will not touch or play
with the remote.
l When bringing the MiEV Remote on
flights, do not press any switches on the
MiEV Remote while on the plane. If a
switch is pressed on the plane, the MiEV
Remote emits electromagnetic waves
which like cell phones and other wireless
devices, could interfere with systems on
the airplane.
When carrying the MiEV Remote in a
bag, be careful that no switches on the
MiEV Remote can be pressed by mistake. CAUTION
l
Never disassemble or modify the MiEV
Remote. No user serviceable parts are in-
side except batteries.
l Disassembling or modifying the MiEV Re-
mote or removing a label from the MiEV
Remote may violate regulations.
NOTE l The

MiEV Remote system uses radio waves.
The MiEV Remote can operate within approx-
imately 100 m from the vehicle.
In the following environments or situations,
the MiEV Remote may not transmit and re-
ceive radio waves correctly. As a result, the
remote may not operate properly. • When the vehicle and the MiEV Remoteare separated by a concrete wall.
• When there is a metal wall between the vehicle and the MiEV Remote.
• When the vehicle is surrounded by other tall vehicles.
• When the vehicle and/or the MiEV Re- mote is near a facility emitting strong ra-
dio waves, such as a television tower, a
transformer substation, a broadcasting sta-
tion or an airport.
• When other electrical equipment such as computers or cell-phones are placed near
the MiEV Remote.
• When the MiEV Remote touches some- thing metallic, or is covered by a metal ob-
ject.
• When batteries for the MiEV Remote are weak. Charging

quency broadcasting the same programming with
the same PI code in AF list.
If there are no frequencies broadcasting the same
programming, the radio searches a frequency broad-
casting the regional programming. The radio suc-
ceeds in searching the regional programming, then
the display shows the REG indicator.
If the radio does not succeed in searching the re-
gional programming, the radio returns to the recal-
led preset station.
