To honk the horn, press around the “ ” mark on the steering wheel.
NOTE
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. This could scratch the glass and wear thewiper blades prematurely. Before using the wipers in cold weather, check to be sure that the wiper blades are notfrozen to the windshield. Using the wipers while the blades are frozen could cause the wiper motor to burn out. If the wipers are left on the glass out of the parked position and th
ey become blocked by
ice or other deposits on the glass, the motor may still burn out even
if the wiper switch is
OFF. If deposits form on the windshield,park your vehicle in a safe place, turn off the electric motor switch,
and clean the glass so
that the wipers can operate smoothly. Avoid using the washer for more than 20 sec- onds at a time. Do not
operate the washer
when the fluid reservoir is empty or the pump may fail. During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution that will not freeze in the washer reservoir. Otherwise the washer maynot work or may be damaged. Replace the wiper blades when they are worn. Use the proper size replacement blades. If you have ques
tions, ask a certified
i-MiEV dealer.
