Brake warning light (brake warning buzzer)
N00520400500
This light comes on when the electric motor switch is turned to
the “ON” position, and goes off after a few seconds.
The light will illuminate under the following conditions:

When the parking brake has been engaged.

When the brake fluid level in the reservoir falls to a low
level.

When there is a fault in the brake vacuum pressure sys-
tem.

When the brake force distribution function is not operat-
ing correctly.
Before driving your vehicle, release the parking brake and
make certain that the brake warning light has gone out.
Brake warning buzzer
Vacuum pressure is used to help reduce brake pedal effort. If
this vacuum pressure becomes insufficient, a buzzer will sound
to alert the driver that the effort required to apply the brakes
may increase. If the buzzer should continue to sound, park your
vehicle in a safe place and contact a certified i-MiEV dealer.NOTE
When the brake pedal has been repeatedly depressed over
a short period of time, the brake warning light may illumi-
nate and the brake warning buzzer may sound because the
vacuum pressure is temporarily low. It is normal if the
light goes out and the buzzer stops sounding after a few
seconds.
NOTE
At times, you may hear the brake electric vacuum pump
for the power brakes operating when the ready indicator
illuminates or the brake pedal is depressed.
This sound is normal and does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
!
If any of the following situations occur, stop the
vehicle in a safe location, avoiding any sudden brake
application, and contact a certified i-MiEV dealer.
• The brake warning light does not illuminate when
the parking brake is applied or does not turn off
when the parking brake is released.
• The brake warning light illuminates while the
parking brake is not applied.
• The brake warning buzzer does not turn off.
