2. Remove the fuse puller (A) from the inside of the fuse cover in the passengercompartment. 3. Clamp it on the fuse you wish to remove, and pull the fuse straight out from the fuseblock.
4. Use the fuse location diagrams and their corresponding tables, to check the fusethat is related to the problem. If the fuse is not blown, something
else must be caus-
ing the problem.Contact a certified i-
MiEV dealer to have
the problem checked. 5. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity securely into the appropriate slot.

Before replacing a bulb,
be sure the light is
off. Do not touch the glass part of the newbulb with your bare fingers; the oil from your skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy the bulb when it gets hot.
N00943000099
The bulb should only be replaced with a newbulb with the same rating and type. The typeand rating are listed on the base of the bulb.
N00950301916
 If the replacement fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical systemchecked by a certified i-
MiEV dealer to find
and correct the cause.
Replacement of light bulbs
CAUTION Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after being turned off. When replacing a bulb, wait for it to coolsufficiently before t
ouching it. You could
otherwise be burned.NOTE
 If you are unsure of how to carry out the work as required, it is recommended that these procedures be ca
rried out by
a certified
i-MiEV dealer.  Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body when removing a light and lens.CAUTION
 When it rains, or wh
en the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimesbecomes temporarily foggy. This is the samephenomenon as when window glass mists up on a humid day, and does not indicate a func- tional problem.When the light is switched on, the heat will remove the fog. However, if water collects inside the light, please
have it checked by a
certified i-MiEV dealer.
