While pressing the brake pe\bal, you
can select your \brive mo\be.
D - use this position f\wor normal \briving
Eco - use this position t\wo limit
power consumption an\b
maximize \briving range
B - use this position w\when braking is require\b such as
on a steep \bownhill Energy Usage Indicator

Charge Zone - when the nee\ble \wis in this
area, more electric energy is charge\b back
to your battery
Eco Zone - when the nee\ble \wis in this area,
you are maximizing your range

How to Rea\b the \fnergy Level Gauge
Similar to a tra\bitional gas powere\b vehicle’s fuel gauge, the \fnergy
Level Gauge in your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV in\bicates the remaining power in
the main \brive lithium-ion battery.
When the \fnergy Level Gauge shows two bars remaining, the warning
in\bicator ­ ) ashes telling you your remaining battery charge is low.
When the \fnergy Level Gauge shows one bar remaining, the warning
in\bicator ­ ) an\b the char\wging bars ­B) ash\w alternately telling you your

may not comply.
Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery vs. 12 Volt Starter Battery
If the 12 volt starter battery is \bischarge\b regar\bless of the remaining level of the main
\brive lithium-ion battery, the vehicle cannot be \br\wiven.
The 12 volt starter battery provi\bes electricity t\wo numerous \bevices in the car. \fven if the
remaining electricit\wy level of the main \brive lithium-ion battery lowers, you can continue to
use the lights an\b \wwipers.
To avoi\b the 12 volt starter battery from \bying please avoi\b using the hea\bli\wghts, ra\bio, air

be able to move at low spee\bs, an\b the ai\wr con\bitioning unit sh\wuts of. This warning light will i\wlluminate¡
Ÿ When the energy level in the main \brive lithium-ion battery is near empty
Ÿ When temperature of the electric \wmotor unit or the main \w\brive lithium-ion battery is too high or too low
Ÿ When voltage of the main \w\brive lithium-ion battery becomes low

\ffectively using your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV Remote
1) vehicle cabin’s temperature will be comfortable while utili\wzing the power from the outlet rather than from the main \brive lithium-ion
battery.
2) Time\b battery charging š you can set a timer t\wo take a\bvantage of lower energy rates by having your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV programme\b to charge \buring those of \wpeak hours.
£) Battery level information š you can view your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV’s charge level on your i-Mi\fV Remote without being in \wyour vehicle.
¤) To maximize the range of the i-Mi\fV \wRemote, exten\b the antennae to its full height. \wWhen unobstructe\b, the range is up to £00 feet.
Your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV Remote inclu\bes the following functions:
1) Power/communication button š when briey pushe\w\b, settings are communicate\b to the
Mitsubishi i-Mi\fV. When pushe\b longer t\whan a secon\b, the controller is turne\b on \wor of.
2) Mode button š scrolls to Charging Time,  C, Heater, an\b Defroster by œust pressing the mo\be
button

\buring charging attempt.
¦) ERROR indicator š blinks if there is an operation or communication error.
¥) Battery indicator š shows remaining charge of main \brive lithium-ion battery. Blinks if battery
has less than 20« charge.
¨) Timer indicator š shows whether the timer \wis on or of.
10) Program timing indicator š shows the amount of time\w left until timer ch\warging is complete base\b on the program
