While charging, even if the electric motor switch is in the “LOCK” position, you mayhear operating sounds such as sounds from the cooling fan and air conditioning compres- sor when operating the main drive lithium-ionbattery cooling system
or Remote Climate
Control. This is normal. Refer to “Remote Climate Control” on page 3-36, 3-47.

Operating sound under charg- ing or Remote Climate Control
For persons with electro-medi-cal apparatus such as implant-able cardiac pacemaker or implantable cardiovascular defibrillator
WA R N I N G Before charging, read the instructions described below carefully and follow them. Also read and follow the instruc-tions for “Regular charging (charging method with rated AC 120 V outlet)” on page 3-16, “Regular
charging (using 240 V
Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment)” on page 3-26, and “Quick
charging (charging
method with quick
charger)” on page
3-27. Before charging, indivi
duals using an elec-
tro-medical apparatu
s such as implant-
able pacemakers and implantable cardiovascular-defibril
lators should check
with the manufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic waves from charging
. The electromagnetic
waves may affect the operations of the electro-medical apparatus.
 When performing re
gular charging, keep
your electro-medical apparatus, such asimplantable cardiac pacemaker orimplantable cardiovas
cular defibrillator,
away from the charge connector, EV charging cable, control box or regularcharging station. Do not perform quick charging and keep away from a quick ch
arger. Electromag-
netic waves produced
by a quick charger
may affect the operation of your electric-medical apparatus. If you have acciden- tally approached a qu
ick charger, walk
away from the quick
charger immediately.
If quick charging is necessary, ask some- one for help. While charging;• Do not stay inside the vehicle.• Do not go inside the vehicle, for example to remove or place an item in the passen-ger compartment.• Do not open the liftgate, for example toremove or place an item in the cargo area.

Regular charge port light (A) comes on when the UNLOCK button on the remote control transmitter is pressed, or when any door orthe liftgate is opened.
The regular charge port
light and the dome light
s (with the dome light
switch in the “DOOR” position) will come onsimultaneously. However, the regular charge port light will not
come on when you press
the dome light (front) lens or slide the dome light (rear) switch to the “ON” position. For details, refer to
“Keyless entry system”
on page 5-5, “Dome
light (Front)/Reading
lights” on page 5-77 a
nd “Dome light (Rear)”
To turn on the charge port light again, press the UNLOCK button on the remote control transmitter, or open any
door or the liftgate.
Individuals using an
electro-medical
apparatus such as implantable pacemak-ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should
check with the
manufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the el
ectromagnetic waves
from charging. The el
ectromagnetic waves
may affect the operations of the electro- medical apparatus. If you use an electro-medical apparatus, such as an implanta
ble cardiac pacemaker
or an implantable ca
rdiovascular
defibril-
lator, observe the following precautions before charging;• Keep your electro-medical apparatusaway from the charge connector, EVcharging cable, control box and regular charging station.• While regular charging;· Do not stay inside the vehicle. · Do not go inside the vehicle, for exam- ple to remove or place an item in the passenger compartment.· Do not open the liftgate, for example to remove or place an item in the cargo area.
 To reduce the risk of electric shock, con- nect only to a prop
erly grounded and
waterproofed outlet. Never use an extension cable, multi-plug adapter or conversion adapter. Using them may cause overheating result- ing in fire.WA R N I N G
 Never force the connection if the charging cable or plug shows damage or is not eas-ily connected due to foreign materialentering the plug or the outlet. Never use an outlet that is worn, damaged, or will not hold the plug firmly. Make sure that the plug is inserted all the way into the outlet before use. While it is normal fo
r the plug and charg-
ing cable to become warm during charg- ing, discontinue use immediately if the plug or charging cable becomes too hot totouch. Never pull the cable to remove the plug.Never connect or disconnect the plug with a wet hand.NOTE
 Your vehicle is equipped with an EV charg- ing cable for regular charging. Refer to “EVcharging cable” on page 3-23.  When connecting or
disconnecting the regu-
lar charge connector, in
sert/pull out the con-
nector straight. Also, do not incline or twist the connector.Doing so could cause a bad connection ormalfunction.  Make sure to lock the doors to prevent theft, etc. during charging.WA R N I N G

Regular charging cannot be started.
There is no electrical power coming from the outlet.
Confirm that there has not been a power
failure. Make sure the breaker is
on. If an outlet with a timer device
installed is used,
power will only be
available at the time set by the timer. Confirm if the POWER indicator on
the control box
is illuminated.
The charge connector is not con- nected correctly.
Confirm the charge connector is connected correctly.
The charge connector was connected and disconnected repeatedly in a short time.
Disconnect the charge conne
ctor, wait for a while, then start charging pro-
cedure again from the beginning.
A charging cable for other vehicle is used.
Use the EV charging cable only for your vehicle.
The regular charger may not be com- patible with your vehicle.
Ask an administrator or the manufacturer of the regular charger whether the charger is compatible with your
vehicle. Al
ways follow the instruc-
tions shown on the regular charger.
Charging Timer by MiEV remote cannot be started.

The MiEV Remote System has the following three functions.  Charging Timer
 P.3-41
When the EV charging cable (regular charger) (Level 1 or Level 2) is con-nected, the batteries will only charge during the pre-set
time period selected
using the MiEV Remote.
 Remote Climate Control
 P.3-47
When the EV charging cable (regular charger) (Level 1 or Level 2) is con-nected, the air-conditi
oner or heater can
be activated for up to 30 minutes prior to vehicle usage. This feature can beused to cool or heat the car and to acti- vate the front and rear window defroster.
 Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Level Indicator
 P.3-50
The charge remaining in the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery can be con-firmed through the MiEV Remote.
For your quick reference, refer to “Basic operation of the MiEV Remote” on page 3-40.
 If your vehicle needs to be towed, trans- port the vehicle on a
flatbed truck or tow
the vehicle either with all wheels or therear wheels (drive
wheels) off the ground.
If the rear wheels are on the ground when towing, this may cause damage to the elec-tric motors. This may also cause a fire, if wiring in the electric motor unit room becomes damaged. Refer to “Towing” onpage 8-11. Do not attempt to repair a damaged elec- tric vehicle yourself. Please contact a cer- tified i-MiEV dealer for service. In the event of an ac
cident that requires
body repair and painting, the vehicle should be delivered
to a Certified i-MiEV
dealer to have the main drive lithium-ion battery and high voltage
parts such as the
inverter, including the attached wiringharness, removed prior to painting. If exposed to heat in the paint booth, the main drive lithium-ion battery will experi-ence battery capacity loss. A damaged main drive lithium-ion battery can also pose safety risks to untrainedmechanics and repair personnel.NOTE
 The emergency shut-off
system will be acti-
vated and the high-volta
ge system will auto-
matically turn off under the following conditions:WA R N I N G
• Certain front, side or rear collisions. • Certain EV (Electric Vehicle) system mal- functions.
 When the emergency shut
-off system is acti-
vated, the ready indicato
r is turned off. Refer
to “Indicator and warning light package” on page 5-43.  If the emergency shut-off system activates, contact a Certifie
d i-MiEV dealer.
