High-Voltage components
WA R N I N GThe EV (Electric Vehicle) system uses high voltage up to DC 330 volt. The system can be hot during and after starting and when the vehicle is shut off. Be careful of boththe high voltage and
the high temperature.
Follow the warning labels that are attached to the vehicle.
Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts, exposed elec-trical components, cables or connectors. Failure to follow this instruction can result in severe burns or electric shockcausing serious injury
or death. High-volt-
age cables are colore
d orange. The vehicle
high voltage system has no user service-able parts. Take your
vehicle to a Certified
i-MiEV dealer for any necessary mainte- nance. Always assume the high voltage battery and associated components are energizedand fully charged.WA R N I N G

N01203401056
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.

Overuse of the brake can cause poor brakeresponse and premature wear of the brakepads.
N00517600423
Your vehicle is equipped with power brakesfor more braking force with reduced brakepedal effort. Your brakes are designed to operate at full capacity, even if the power assist is lost.If the power assist is lost, the effort needed to press the brake pedal is greater. If you should lose the power assist for somereason, the brakes will still work. If the power brake unit or either of the two brake hydraulic systems stop working prop-
WA R N I N G Always pay special attention to pedestri- ans. Even if the acou
stic vehicle alerting
system (AVAS) sounds, pedestrians may not notice your vehicle.
NOTE
If the indicator light blinks, turn the electric motor switch back to the “LOCK” positionand again turn the switch to the “ON” posi- tion. It is not a malfunction if the indicator lightgoes off. If the indica
tor light blinks again,
however, have the vehicl
e inspected at a cer-
tified i-MiEV dealer as soon as possible.
Service brake Brake pedal
WA R N I N G Do not leave any obje
cts near the brake
pedal or let a floor
mat slide under it;
doing so could prevent the full pedalstroke that would be necessary in an emergency. Make sure that the pedal can be operated freely at
all times. Make sure
the floor mat is securely held in place.CAUTION It is important not to drive the vehicle with your foot resting on the brake pedal when braking is not required.
This practice can
result in very high brake temperatures, pre- mature pad wear, and pos
sible damage to the
brakes.

The power consumption of the electric motor, the air conditioning, and power generation by the regenerative brake are indicated.When the ready indicator comes on, the red needle will move to th
e neutral point (A) and
then move to the right or left according to theamount of power consumption or power gen- eration. [When the red needle moves to the right of the neutral point] This indicates that the electric motor unit and/or the air conditioning are consumingelectric energy from the main drive lithium- ion battery. The more the needle moves to the right, themore electrical energy
is being consumed.
[When the red needle moves to the left of the neutral point] This indicates that electric energy is beinggenerated by the regenerative brake and charged to the main dr
ive lithium-ion battery.
The more the needle moves to the left, themore electric energy
is being generated.

NOTE
When the main drive lithium-ion battery is at or near full charge, or
the main drive lithium-
ion battery temperature is too high or toolow, the needle in the energy usage indicator may not move to the left of the neutral point, since the main drive lithium-ion battery can-not receive charge.
