Carefully read instru
ctions on “Precautions
during charging the main drive lithium-ionbattery” on page 3-14,
described in this sec-
tion and also instructions for a quick charger you uses, and follow them.
1. Fully apply the parking brake and move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) posi-tion. 2. Stop the electric devices such as lamps, air conditioning, etc.
and turn the electric
motor switch to the “LOCK” position.

WA R N I N G Be sure to use a qu
ick charger compatible
with i-MiEV. Use of a non-compatible quick charger may cause a fire or mal- function.For the quick charger compatible with i- MiEV, consult an certified i-MiEV dealer. For operation of a quick charger, follow instructions for each quick charger. Never connect or disc
onnect the charger
with a wet hand. Never pull the cable to disconnect the charger. During charging, the
cooling fans under
the hood may automa
tically be operated
even if the electric motor switch is in the“LOCK” position. Ke
ep your hands away
from the cooling fan during charging. As the quick charge connector is heavier in comparison to th
e regular charge con-
nector, allowing it to drop could causedamage to the vehicl
e or charge connector
or personal injury.
CAUTION If the charge connector cannot easily be con- nected to the charge port, do not force theconnection. Foreign mate
rial may be in the
charge connector or charge port, or the charging device may not
be compatible with
your vehicle. Contact a certified i-MiEVdealer.NOTE
 Repeatedly performi
ng only quick charging
can reduce the batter
y capacity. Regular
charging is recommended unless quickcharging is necessary.  Before using a publicly
available quick char-
ger, confirm that the charger is suitable for your vehicle.  Make sure to lock the doors to prevent theft, etc. during charging.

High voltage components and wiring cables are located as shown in the figure below.
N01205800031
A crash or impact significant enough to require an emergency response for conven- tional vehicles would
also require the same
response for electric vehicles. Also follow the instruct
ions described below
to avoid severe burns a
nd electrical shock that
may result in serious injury or death.
High-Voltage components
WA R N I N G The EV (Electric Vehicle) system uses high voltage up to DC 330 volt. The system canbe hot during and after starting and when the vehicle is shut off. Be careful of both the high voltage and
the high temperature.
Follow the warning labels that are attached to the vehicle. Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts, exposed elec- trical components, cables or connectors.Failure to follow this instruction can result in severe burns
or electric shock
causing serious injury
or death. High-volt-
age cables are colore
d orange. Th
e vehicle
high voltage system has no user service- able parts. Take your
vehicle to a Certified
i-MiEV dealer for an
y necessary mainte-
nance. Always assume the hi
gh voltage battery
and associated compon
ents are energized
and fully charged.

WA R N I N G If your vehicle is dr
ivable, pull your vehi-
cle off the road to a safe, nearby locationand remain on the scene.Also, if possible, do
the follow
ing opera-
tions and stay out of the way of any oncoming traffic while awaiting thearrival of emergency responders.• Apply chocks to the wheels.• Move the selector
lever to the “P”
(PARK) position.• Apply the parking brake.• Open the windows,
doors and liftgate.
• Turn the electric motor switch to the “LOCK” position.• Turn on the hazard warning flashers.• Move the key away fr
om the vehicle to
prevent unintended start-up of the sys-tem by inadvertent contact with a switch or impact from the crash.
 Never touch high-vol
tage wiring, connec-
tors, and other high-vol
tage parts, such as
the inverter unit and main drive lithium-ion battery. An electric shock may occur if exposed electric wires are visible when viewed from inside
or outside of your
vehicle. For their locations, see “High- voltage components” on page 3-30. If the vehicle receives a strong impact to the floor while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the floor.

The following conditions must be met to operate the Remote Climate Control.  Selector lever:
P (PARK) position.
 Electric motor switch: LOCK position.  EV charging cable (re
gular charger): Con-
nected.  Quick charging: Not used.  Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Level Indicator: Shows one bar or more. Refer to “Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery LevelIndicator” on page 3-45.  All doors and the liftgate: Closed. 1. Start charging. Refer to “Regular charging (charging method with rated AC 120 V outlet)” on page 3-15.
Remote Climate Control
WA R N I N G The Remote Climate Control, even when set, cannot be relied upon to maintain safevehicle cabin temperatures while the vehi- cle is stopped or park
ed. Never leave chil-
dren or persons requiringsupervision/nursing unattended inside the vehicle. Temperature inside the vehicle could become extremely high or lowresulting in a risk of
heat stroke or hyper-
thermia that could result in death. In addition, children
can activate switches
and controls, resulting in an injury or fatal accident. While the Remote Climate Control is acti- vated, keep away from
the cooling fan
under the front hood,
since the cooling fan
may automatically operate even if the electric motor switch is in the “LOCK” position.NOTE
 The Remote Climate Control works regard- less the position of the air conditioningswitch or dial on the vehicle. While the Remote Climate Control is activated, the air conditioning switch or di
al on the vehicle
will not affect operation
of the cooler, heater
or defroster.
 The Remote Climate Control will automati- cally stop 30 minutes after the Remote Cli-mate Control has been set.  The Remote Climate Control is operated by electric power s
upplied through the EV
charging cable (regular charger).  Under the following c
onditions, the effect of
the Remote Climate Control can be decreased. • When the outside temperature is very high. • When the sunlight is strong.• When the outside temperature is very low.  When Remote Climate Control is activated while charging the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery, the time required to fully charge theMain Drive Lithium-ion Battery will become longer or the amount of charge may decrease if the OFF timer has been set.  If the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Warming System is operated while theRemote Climate Control is activated, the Remote Climate Control will stop. When the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery WarmingSystem stops, the Remote Climate Control will resume. Refer to “Main Drive Lithium- ion Battery Warming System” on page 3-20.  While the Remote Climate Control is acti- vated, if a heated seat switch is ON, theheated seat will operate.NOTE
To operate the Remote Climate Control
WA R N I N G Improper charging can result in a fire, property damage, and serious injury ordeath. Carefully read and fo
llow instructions in
“Precaution during Charging the MainDrive Lithium-ion Battery” on page 3-14 and “Regular chargi
ng (charging method
with rated AC 120 V ou
tlet)” on page 3-15.

Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help protect you and your passengers in an accident.Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or deathin various types of cras
hes. For added protec-
tion during a severe fr
ontal collision, your
vehicle has a Supplemen
tal Restraint System
(SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen- gers. The seats, head restraints, and door
locks are also safety equipment, which must be used correctly. Always check the following before you drive: That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their seat belt.  That infants and small children are prop- erly secured in appropriate child restraintsystems in the rear seat.  That all doors are fully closed and locked.  That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly adjusted.

Door locks
WA R N I N GMake sure all doors are tightly closed and locked while driving.• Locked doors, in co
mbination with the
use of seat belts, can help reduce the riskof ejection in
an accident.
• Locked doors can help keep passengers, especially small children, from opening doors and falling out
of moving vehicles.
• Locked doors can help
prevent outsiders
from gaining access to your vehicle when you slow down or come to a stop.
 Lock your vehicle when
ever you leave it.
Children who get into
unlocked vehicles
may not be able to get out. Children trapped inside vehicles can quickly be overcome by heat
and suffer serious
injury or death due to heat stroke. Never leave children unattended inside a vehicle. In addition
to the risk of heat
stroke, children can activate switches and controls, resulting in an injury or fatalaccident.
