Symptom
Possible cause
Possible solution
Charging cannot be started. The elec
tric motor switch is in the
ON position.
Before charging, place the electric motor switch in the “LOCK” position.
The main drive lithium-ion battery is already fully charged.
Charging cannot be performed if the
main drive lithium-ion battery is
already fully charged. Charging automa
tically turns off if the main drive
lithium-ion battery is fully charged.
The temperature of the main drive lithium-ion battery is too high or too low to charge.
Confirm the main drive lithium-ion battery temperature. Refer to “Cautions and actions to deal
with intense heat” on page 3-8 and
“Cautions and actions to deal with intense cold” on page 3-10.
The 12V starter battery is discharged. The main drive lith
ium-ion battery can be charge
d if the vehicle electrical
systems cannot be turned on. If the batte
ry is discharged, charge or jump
start the 12V starter battery. Refer
to “Jump-starting” on page 8-2.
The vehicle or the charging cable has a malfunction.
The vehicle or the charging cable ma
y have a malfunction. Confirm if the
warning light on the meter is illuminated. Confirm if the indicator on the charger is indicating a malfunction. If
a warning is displayed, stop charg-
ing and contact a cer
tified i-MiEV dealer.
The fuse has blown. Confirm if the fuse of the in
terior lights (dome lights) in the fuse block in
the passenger compartment located in front of the driver’s seat has blown. Refer to “Fuses” on page 9-18.

onal MiEV Remotes,
please contact a certified i-MiEV dealer. Upto four MiEV Remotes
can be used per vehi-
cle.  You may hear operating sounds such as sounds from the cooli
ng fan and air condi-
