3. Clamp it on the fuse you wish to remove, and pull the fuse
straight out from the fuse block.4. Use the fuse location diagrams and their corresponding
tables, to check the fuse that is related to the problem. If
the fuse is not blown, something else must be causing the
problem.
Contact a certified i-MiEV dealer to have the problem
checked.
5. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity securely into the
appropriate slot.

7 Replacement of light bulbs
N00942900336
Before replacing a bulb, be sure the light is off. Do not touch
the glass part of the new bulb with your bare fingers; the oil
from your skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy the
bulb when it gets hot.NOTE
If you are unsure of how to carry out the work as required,
it is recommended that these procedures be carried 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 when the vehicle has been washed, the
inside of the lens sometimes becomes temporarily foggy.
This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists
up on a humid day, and does not indicate a functional
problem.
When the light is switched on, the heat will remove the
fog. However, if water collects inside the light, please
have it checked by a certified i-MiEV dealer.
CAUTION
!
Never use a fuse with a capacity greater than the one
listed or any substitute, such as wire, foil etc. This
would cause the circuit wiring to heat up and could
cause a fire.
If the replacement fuse blows again after a short
time, have the electrical system checked by a certi-
fied i-MiEV dealer to find and correct the cause.
CAUTION
!
Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after being
turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool sufficiently
before touching it. You could otherwise be burned.
