When parking on a hill, set the parking brake, and turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill, or away from
the curb on an uphill.
If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.
Never leave the electric motor unit running while you take a short sleep/rest. Your front bumper can be damaged if you scrape it over curbs or parking stop blocks. Be careful when traveling up or down steep
slopes where your bumper can scrape the road. Always remove the key from the electric motor switch and lock all doors and the lift-gate when leaving
the vehicle unattended.
Always try to park your vehicle in a well lit area. More effort could be required to turn the steering wheel. Refer to “Electric power steering system(EPS)” on page 5-27.

It is very important to know how muchweight your vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle ca
pacity weight and
includes the weight of
all occupants, cargo
and non-factory-installed options. The tire and loading information placard located on the driver’s door sill of your vehicle willshow how much weight
it may properly carry.

To determine the cargo load capacity for your vehicle, subtract the
weight of all vehicle
occupants from the vehi
cle capacity weight.
For added information, if needed, refer to “Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit” on page 6-8. DO NOT USE the Gross Vehicle Weight Rat- ing and Gross Axle Weight Rating numberslisted on the safety certification label located on the driver’s side door pillar as the guide for passengers and/or cargo weight.

Dinghy towing is towing the vehicle with all four wheels on the ground.
Cargo loads Cargo load precautions
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, the combined weights of the driver,passengers and cargo and must neverexceed the vehicle capacity weight. Exceeding the vehicle capacity weight will adversely affect ve
hicle performance,
including handling and braking, and may cause an accident. Do not load cargo or luggage higher than the top of the seatback. Be sure that yourcargo or luggage cann
ot move when your
vehicle is in motion. Having either the re
ar view blocked, or
your cargo being thrown
inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause a serious accident or
injury or death.
Put cargo or luggage in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to spread the weightevenly.
Trailer towing
WA R N I N G Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing. It may not be possible to maintain control or adequate braking.

If there is a gap between the tire and wheel because the tire has moved inwardfrom the wheel rim, press the tire tread towards the wheel to close the gap before running the compressor. (With no gaps,the tire pressure will rise.) pull the power cord plug out of the 12 V power outlet.
17. Affix the speed restriction sticker (R) to
the three-diamond mark on the steering wheel.
18. When you have inflated the tire to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor,bottle, and other items
in the vehicle and
make sure that the seat cushion is properly secured. (Refer to “Tire repair kit storage” vehicle so that the tire sealant can spread evenly in the tire. Drive with great care.Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). Observe local speed limits.
19. After driving for 10 minutes or 3 miles (5
km), park the vehi
cle in safe place.
Remove the air compressor from the stowed position. Check the tire pressure using the air pressure gauge on the com-pressor. If the tire pressure has apparently not dropped, the emergency repair proce- dure is complete. Continue the processfrom step 21. If the tire pressure is
not sufficient, inflate
the tire to the specified pressure again anddrive the vehicle carefully without exceeding a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).
CAUTION The surface of the compressor will get hot while the compressor is running. Do not keep the compressor running continuously for more than 10 minutes. After using thecompressor, wait for the compressor to cool before using it again. If the compressor becomes sluggish or hot while operating, it is
overheating. Immedi-
ately place the switch in the OFF positionand let the compressor cool down for at least 30 minutes.NOTE
 If the tire pressure does not rise to the speci- fied level within 10 mi
nutes, the tire may be
so severely damaged that the tire sealant can- not be used to effect the emergency repair. Do not drive the vehicl
e. Please contact a
certified i-MiEV dealer.
NOTE
 At this point the punctu
re hole is
not sealed
yet. Air will leak through the puncture holeuntil the emergency repa
ir procedure is com-
pleted (through step 19 or step 20 of these instructions).CAUTION Do not affix the sticke
r anywhere except the
specified position on th
e pad of the steering
wheel. Affixing the sticker in an incorrect position could prevent the SRS airbag fromdeploying properly.
CAUTION If you sense any abnorma
lity while driving,
stop the vehicle and c
ontact a certified i-
MiEV dealer. Otherwise the tire pressure may drop before the emergency repair proce- dure is completed,
rendering the vehicle
unsafe to drive.
