Using the accelerator - \brive smoothly, accelerate gently an\b rea\b the roa\b
ahea\b. Your real-time energy consumption is \bisplaye\b on the energy usage

foot is of the accelerator or you are braking regenerating energy), the re\b
nee\ble shoul\b be in \wthe blue Charge zone.

Use the more energy e›cient seat heater instea\b of the cabin he\water to keep warm while \briving.
The MAX switch is efective for a\bœusting the cabin temperature quickly, however, it pulls a lot of\w energy.
Once the temperature is set to your liking, it is b\wetter to turn of the MAX switch to re\buce unnecessary
energy consumption.

Charge Overview CHARGING YOUR MITSUBISHI i-MiEV
The Mitsubishi i-Mi\f\wV can be charge\b anytime. However, repeate\bly charging the vehicle’s
battery when it is almos\wt full may \becrease the battery’s overall lifespan.
There are three \biferent levels of charging your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV.
Level 1 charging is base\b on us\wing a stan\bar\b rate\b \be\bicate\b 1¢ amp circuit) /C 120 volt

6) Level 1 charging is base\b on us\wing a stan\bar\b rate\b \be\bicate\b 1¢ amp circuit) /C 120 volt outlet.
Warning - make sure the outlet is on \wa \be\bicate\b circuit which is not s\whare\b with any
other appliances. lso check the\w outlet to conžrm there is no rust or corrosion.
Note\f You cannot connect the charger cor\b into an extension cor\b.
plugging in an \fV i\wnto any outlet in your home or garage. Use a hook an\b a \wrope that can support the w\weight of the \fV cha\wrging
cable, ¥.¥ lbs ¤ kg). Make sure that the rope has no \bamage be\wfore use.
¦) Open the cap on th\we regular charge connector an\b make sure there is no foreign matter such as \bust or \birt on the en\w\b of the connector.
¥) Select your charging amp, either ¥ amp or 1\w2 amp before you connect the charging cor\b to the vehicle. §The vehicle charging cor\b \befaults to ¥ amps an\b you will not be able\w to change the charging amp spee\b once you have connecte\b to the vehicle. Only select
12 amp if you have a \be\bicate\b 1¢ amp circuit/outlet available to plug into an\b the outlet must be groun\be\b an\b protecte\b by a
groun\b-faulty circuit interrupter. Connect the charging cable to your Mitsubishi i-Mi\w\fV until you hear a click. You will also hear a\w fan
turn on briey.
¨) Make sure the charging in\bicator on the Mitsubish\wi i-Mi\fV’s instrument cluster is illuminate\b.
10) Charging is complete when the charging in\bicator light turns of.
11) Remove the connector while pressing the button on the top of the connector.
12) Close the inner li\w\b an\b the regular charging \boor.
1£) Remove the charging cable plug from the outlet an\b store appropriately for future use.
Level 2
You can charge your vehicle through the regular charging port using 2¤0 Volt \flectric Vehicle Supply \fquipment \fVS\f)
compatible with the Mits\wubishi i-Mi\fV. ™or connecting/\bisconnecting the char\wging connector to or from the vehicle, follow
steps 1-12 omitting ©6) as outl\wine\b above. lso, please follow instructions provi\be\b with the 2¤0 \fVS\f.
