11. Keep the jumper cables to each vehicle
connected and turn
the electric motor
switch of your vehicle to the “LOCK” position.
12. Charge the main drive lithium-ion battery
by regular charging. The 12V starter bat-tery will automatically charge while the main drive lithium-ion battery is charging. (Refer to “Regular charging” on page3-15.)
13. When the charging indicator on the instru-
ment cluster is ill
uminated, stop the
engine of the other
vehicle and disconnect
the jumper cables in the reverse order.
14. Charge the main dr
ive lithium-ion battery
for more than 1 hour.
15. Disconnect the charging cable.
(Refer to “Regular charging” on page 3-15.)
16. Turn the electric motor switch to the
“START” position, make sure that the ready indicator on the instrument cluster is illuminated.If the ready indicator
does not illuminate,
perform the procedure again starting from step 5. If charging
cannot be performed,
consult a certified i-MiEV dealer.
17. Refit the battery cover. (“Checking 12V
starter battery electr
olyte level” on page
9-8.)
NOTE
 The jumper cables need to be connected to the 12V starter battery when you start charg-ing the main drive lithium-ion battery because the on board char
ger etc. operate uti-
lizing power from the
12V starter battery.
NOTE
When the regular charge connector is con- nected to the charge port, the charging indi-cator will blink. When charging has started,the charging indicator will illuminate.
Charging the 12V starter bat- tery by using an external bat-tery charger
WA R N I N G Always remove the
12V starter battery
from your vehicle wh
en the 12V starter
batter is charged by an external battery charger. Keep sparks, cigare
ttes and flames away
from the 12V starter battery because thebattery may explode. Keep your work area well vented when charging or using the 12V starter battery in an enclosed space.  Remove all the caps before charging the 12V starter battery.  Electrolyte (battery acid) is corrosive diluted sulphuric acid.
If electrolyte comes
in contact with your hands, eyes, clothes,or the painted surf
ace of your vehicle,
thoroughly flush with water. If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush them immediatelyand thoroughly with
water, and get

Taking regular care of your vehicle helps pre- serve its value and appe
arance as long as pos-
sible.This vehicle is an electric vehicle and is equipped with many high-voltage compo- nents. Refer to “High-voltage components”on page 3-30. You can do some of the maintenance work described in this manual by yourself, but the rest must be performed
only by a certified i-
MiEV dealer.If you discover a malfunction or other prob- lem, have it corrected by a certified i-MiEV dealer.Also follow the instru
ctions and take note of
the precautions for each procedure.
High voltage components and wiring cables are located as shown in the figure below.
Service precautions
WA R N I N G Never touch, remove or disassemble the high- voltage componen
ts including high-
voltage wires colore
d orange and their
connectors. Doing so can result in a fire, property damage, elec
trocution and seri-
ous injury or death. These components are affixed with a label indicating precautions for handling. Fol-low the instructions on the label. Take your vehicle to a cert
ified i-MiEV dealer
for any necessary maintenance.
1- Regular charge port 2- MCU 3- Main drive lithium-ion battery4- Heater 5- Air conditioner compressor 6- High voltage connector7- Service plug 8- Electric motor (Electric motor unit) 9- On board charger/DC-DC converter10- Quick charge port
WA R N I N G When servicing the vehicle, make sure that the electric motor switch is in the“LOCK” position and
the charging cable
is disconnected. Failure to do so could result in an electric shock.
 When checking or servicing under the hood or the coolant reserve tank, be surethe electric motor unit is stopped and ithas had a chance to cool down.  If you need to work
under the hood with
the electric motor unit on, be careful that your clothing, hair, etc. does not get caught in the fan or other moving parts. The fan can turn on automatically even if the electric motor unit is not running.Turn the electric motor switch to the “LOCK” position to be
safe while you are
working under the hood. Do not smoke or allow open flames around the 12V starter battery. Be extremely careful when working around the 12V starter battery. It containspoisonous and corros
ive sulfuric acid.
Handling your vehicle’s parts and materi- als in the wrong way can injure you. Ask a certified i-MiEV dealer
if you have ques-
tions. CAUTION The components inside
the electric motor
unit room may be very
hot to the touch.
Make sure all components have sufficientlycooled before beginning an inspection. These components are affixed with a label indicating precautions
for handling. Follow
the instructions on the label.WA R N I N G
