N01203401043
The MiEV Remote System has the following three functions. Charging Timer When the EV charging cable (regularcharger) (Level 1 or Level 2) is con- nected, the batteries will only charge during the pre-set ti
me period selected
using the MiEV Remote.
Remote Climate Control When the EV charging cable (regular charger) (Level 1 or Level 2) is con- nected, the air-conditioner or heater canbe activated for up to 30 minutes prior to vehicle usage. This feature can be used to cool or heat the car and to acti-vate the front and rear window defroster.
Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Level Indicator 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 3-35.MiEV Remote System
WA R N I N G Individuals who use
implantable pace-
makers or implanta
ble cardiovascular-
defibrillators
should keep away from the
external and internal
transmitters. The
electromagnetic wave
s used in the MiEV
Remote System may affect the operation of implantable pacemakers and implant- able cardiovascular-defibrillators. Individuals using ot
her electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak-ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should
check with the
manufacturer of the apparatus to confirmthe effect of the el
ectromagnetic waves
used by the MiEV Remote System. The electromagnetic wave
s may affect the
operations of the el
ectro-medical appara-
tus. Never use the MiEV Remote near medical equipment. Electrom
agnetic waves could
adversely affect th
e medical equipment.

Keep the MiEV Remote in the place where children will not touch or play with theremote. When bringing the MiEV Remote on flights, do not press any switches on theMiEV Remote while on the plane. If a switch is pressed on the plane, the MiEV Remote emits electromagnetic waveswhich like cell phones and other wireless devices, could interfere with systems on the airplane.When carrying the MiEV Remote in a bag, be careful that no switches on the MiEV Remote can be pressed by mistake.CAUTION Never disassemble or modify the MiEV Remote. No user servic
eable parts are inside
except batteries. Disassembling or modifying the MiEV Remote or removing a label from the MiEV Remote may violate regulations. WA R N I N G

3. The system has ente
red the armed stage
after about 20 seconds, when the theft-alarm indicator flashi
ng becomes slower.
The theft-alarm indicator continues to flash while the system is in the armedstage.
The alarm will be activated if the following occurs while the vehicle is parked and the system is armed. One of the doors and the liftgate is opened without using the keyless entry system.
When the alarm is activated: 1. The headlights blink on and off for 3 min- utes. After 3 minutes the headlights automati-cally shut off. 2. The horn will sound intermittently for 3 minutes.
The alarm can be deacti
vated in the following
ways. By using the keyless entry system to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate. Turn the electric motor switch to the “ON” position.
The system will be disarmed if the following operation is performed. The electric motor switch is turned to the “ON” position.
NOTE
The system will be disarmed if, while the theft-alarm indicator is
illuminated, all doors
and the liftgate are
unlocked by using the
keyless entry system. The system will be disarmed if, while the theft-alarm indicator is illuminated, the elec-tric motor switch is turned to the “ON”. The system will not be armed if a door or the liftgate is not completely closed. If this hap- pens, rearm the system
as described above.
The theft-alarm system can be activated when people are riding inside the vehicle or when the windows are open. To prevent acci-dental activati
on of the alarm, do not set the
system to the system armed mode while peo- ple are riding in the vehicle. If the answerback function (flashing of the turn signal lights by locking and unlockingthe doors and the liftgate
) is deactivated, the
turn signal lights do not flash after the lock- ing and unlocking operation.For information on the answerback function, refer to “Keyless entry system” on pages 5-5.
Alarm stage Type of alarm Horn sounds!Headlights blink on and off!
NOTE
The alarm will continue to operate for 3 min- utes. At the end of that
period, the alarm will
automatically shut off
to save battery power.
The system will then
be rearmed until the
proper disarming step is taken. The alarm will resu
me if unauthorized
actions are taken again, even if the alarm has stopped.

using the keyless entry system.
Use the following proce
dure to test the sys-
tem:
1. Lower the driver’s window. 2. Arm the system as explained in “Armedstage”. 3. Make sure that the theft-alarm indicator comes on and flashe
s for approximately

NOTE
If the UNLOCK button on the remote control transmitter is operated when all doors and the liftgate are closed and no door is opened within approximately 30 seconds, re-armingwill automatically occur. The amount of time afte
r unlocking until the
vehicle relocks automatically can be adjusted. See a certified i-MiEV dealer for details. Once the system has been disarmed, it can- not be rearmed except
by repeating the arm-
ing procedure.

Power window control 1- Open (down) 2- Close (up)
NOTE
Never try to operate the main switch and sub-switch in different
directions at the same
time. This will free
ze the window in posi-
tion. Operating the power windows repeatedly with the electr
ic motor unit stopped will run
down the 12V starter battery. Use the win- dow switches only while the electric motorunit is operating.WA R N I N G Before operating the power windows, make sure that nothing can be trapped (head, hands, fingers, etc.) in the window. Never leave the vehi
cle without carrying
the key. Never leave children
or unreliable adults
unattended inside the vehicle.

Tire pressure monitoring system
Features and controls 5-33
5
The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in the following circum- stances: A wireless facility or device using the same frequency is near the vehicle. Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the wheels. The tire inflation pre
ssure sensors’ battery
is exhausted. Wheels other than Mitsubishi Motors gen- uine wheels are being used. Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla- tion pressure sensors are being used. Wheels whose ID codes are not memo- rized by the vehicle are used. A window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
N00532900182
If you use new wheels with new tire inflationpressure sensors, their ID codes must be pro- grammed into the tire pressure monitoring system. Have tire and
wheel replacement per-
formed by a certified i-MiEV dealer to avoid the risk of damaging the tire inflation pres- sure sensors.
N00533000207
Your tire pressure monitoring system oper- ates on a radio frequenc
y subject to Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules(For vehicles sold in
U.S.A.) and Industry
Canada Rules (For vehicles sold in Canada). This device complies wi
th Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and RSS- Gen of the Industry Canada Rules. Operation is subject to the following two con- ditions. This device may not
cause harmful inter-
ference. This device must ac
cept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray on any tire. Such a spray could damage thetire inflation pressure sensors. Using the tire repair kit may damage the tire inflation pressure sensor. The vehicle mustpromptly be inspected and repaired by a cer- tified i-MiEV dealer after using the tire repair kit.NOTE
NOTE
Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambi- ent temperature. If the vehicle is subjected tolarge variations in ambient temperature, thetire inflation pressures may be under-inflated (causing the warning light to come on) when the ambient temperature is relatively low. Ifthe warning light comes on, adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with new ones
CAUTION The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent the proper fit of the tire inflation pressure sensors, resulting air
leakage or damage of
the sensors.

CAUTION Changes or modifica
tions not expressly
approved by the manufacturer for compli- ance could void the user
’s authority to oper-
ate the equipment.
