The air conditioning system is equipped with an air filter to
reduce 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 mainte-
nance interval, refer to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTE-
NANCE MANUAL”.NOTE
Operation in certain conditions such as driving 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 air filter.
Contact a certified i-MiEV dealer for assistance.
Remote Climate Control
(if so equipped)
N00766600016
You can run the air conditioning in advance of using the vehi-
cle. For details, refer to “Remote Climate Control” on page 1-
59.
AM/FM electronically tuned radio with CD
player
(if so equipped)
N00734301062
The audio system can only be used when the electric motor
switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position.NOTE
To listen to the audio system while the electric motor unit
is not running, turn the electric motor switch to the
“ACC” position.
If the electric motor switch is in the “ACC” position, the
accessory power will automatically turn off after a certain
period of time and you will no longer be able to use the
audio system. The accessory power comes on again if the
electric motor switch is turned from the “ACC” position.
Refer to “ACC power auto-cutout function” on page 3-30.

If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, it may create
noise in the audio equipment. This does not mean that
anything is wrong with your audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a place as far away as possi-
ble from the audio equipment.

If foreign objects or water get into the audio equipment, or
if smoke or a strange odor comes from it, immediately
turn off the audio system and have it checked at a certified
i-MiEV dealer. Never try to repair it yourself. Avoid using
the audio system until it is inspected by a qualified person.

If the audio system is damaged by foreign objects, water,
or fire, have the system checked at a certified i-MiEV
dealer.
