The electric rear window defogger can be used when the ready i
ndicator is illuminated.
The indicator light (A) will come on whenyou press the electric rear window defogger switch. Electric current will flow through the heating wires on the rear window to helpclear away moisture or frost. After about 20 minutes of operation, the sys- tem will shut off automatically. To switch the defogger OFF before 20 min-utes have passed, press the switch again. The indicator light will go
out and the defogger
will turn off. If you need the defogger for more than 20 minutes, press th
e switch again. This will add
20 more minutes.
NOTE
 To ensure a clear rearward view, the wiper performs several continuous operationswhen the reverse gear is engaged and theswitch is in the “INT” position. Following this continuous operation, the wiper will automatically switch to intermit-tent operation.  It is possible to modify functions as follows: • Adjustment of the interval for intermittent operation • Changing intermittent
wiper operation to
continuous wi
per operation
For details, consult a certified i-MiEV dealer.
 The washer fluid rese
rvoir is located under-
neath the hood. Check the fluid level regularly and refill ifnecessary. (Refer to
“Washer fluid” on page
9-7.)
using wipers and washers
CAUTION If the washer is used in cold weather, the washer fluid spraye
d onto the glass might
freeze, blocking your view. In cold weather, heat the glass with the
defroster before using
the washer.
NOTE
 Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. This could scratch the glass and wear thewiper blades prematurely.  Before using the wipe
rs in cold weather,
check to be sure that the wiper blades are notfrozen to the windshield. Using the wipers while the blades are frozen could cause the wiper motor to burn out.  If the wipers are left on the glass out of the parked position and they become blocked byice or other deposits on the glass, the motor may still burn out even
if the wiper switch is
OFF. If deposits form on the windshield,park your vehicle in a safe place, turn off the electric motor switch, and clean the glass so that the wipers ca
n operate smoothly.
 Avoid using the washer for more than 20 sec- onds at a time. Do not operate the washerwhen the fluid reservoir is empty or the pump may fail.  During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution that will not freeze in the washer reservoir. Otherwise the washer maynot work or may be damaged.  Replace the wiper blades when they are worn. Use the proper size replacement blades. If you have questions, ask a certified i-MiEV dealer.

 Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while still
keeping good visibil-
ity, and good control of the steering wheel, brakes, accele
rator, and controls.
Check the instrument panel indicators forany possible problem.  Move the front passe
nger seat as far back
as possible.  Make sure that infa
nts and small children
are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
Check these by selecti
ng the defroster mode,
and set the blower swit
ch on high. You should
be able to feel the air blowing against the windshield. (Refer to “Defrosting or defogging the wind- shield and door windows” on page 7-9.) Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear patterns.
Look for stones, nails,
glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or sidewall cracks. Check the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires for proper pressures. Replace your tires beforethey are heavily worn out.
As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk ofdamage to the tire inflation pressure sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, th
erefore, be performed
only by a certified i-MiEV dealer. Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and
high-beam indicators on
the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for wa
ter, oil, or other
leaks. Make sure all the fluid levels are cor- rect.
N00629200124
Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, andyour safest driving, cannot guarantee that youcan avoid an accident or injury. However, if you give extra attention to the following areas, you can better protect yourself andyour passengers:
 Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather conditions. Leave plentyof stopping distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.  Before changing lanes, check your mir- rors and use your turn signal light.  While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicyc
lists, and pedestrians.
 Always obey applicable
laws and regula-
tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Always leave room for unexpected events, such as sudden braking.
N00629400416
 Check the 12V starter battery, including terminals and cables. During extremely cold weather, the 12V starter battery willnot be as strong and
its power level may
drop. Before driving the vehicle, check to see ifthe headlights are as bright as normal. Charge or replace the 12V starter battery if necessary. During extreme coldweather, it is possibl
e that a very low 12V
starter battery could freeze.

The air conditioning should be operated for at least five minutes each week, even in cold weather. This includes the quick defrostingmode. Operating the
air condition system
weekly maintains lubrication of the compres- sor internal parts and maintains the air condi-tioning in the best operating condition.

The air conditioning system is equipped with an air filter to reduc
e pollen and dust entering
the cabin.The air filter’s ability to collect pollen and dust will be reduced as
it becomes dirty, so
replace it periodically. For the maintenanceinterval, refer to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.

The audio system can only be used when theelectric motor switch is in the “ON” or“ACC” position.
CAUTION The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the lubricant POE MA68EV.Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause severe damage a
nd may require replac-
ing your vehicle’s en
tire air conditioning
system. The release of refrigerant into the atmo- sphere is not recommended.The new refrigerant HFC-134a in your vehi- cle is designed not to harm the earth’s ozone layer. However, it may contribute slightly toglobal warming. It is recommended that the old refrigerant be saved and recycled for future use.
During a long period of disuse

NOTE
 Operation in certain conditions such as driv- ing on a dusty road or frequent use of the air conditioning can reduce
the service life of
the filter. When you feel that the air flow is lower than normal or when the windshield or windows start to fog up easily, replace the airfilter. Contact a certified i-MiEV dealer for assis- tance.

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.  When it rains, or wh
en the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimesbecomes temporarily foggy. This is the same phenomenon 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 collectsinside the light, please
