1. Park the vehicle on a
safe, flat and level
place. 2. Set the parking brake firmly. 3. Move the selector
lever to the “P”
(PARK) position and turn the electric motor switch to the “LOCK” position. 4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers andset up a warning sign, such as a warning triangle or flashing signal lamp, at an ade- quate distance from the vehicle, and haveall your passengers leave the vehicle. 5. Take out the tire repair kit.
6. Shake the tire sealant bottle well.
WA R N I N G The tire sealant can
cause health damage
if swallowed. If you
accidentally swallow
it, drink as much water as possible and immediately seek medical attention. If the tire sealant gets in your eyes or on your skin, rinse it away with lots of water. If you still sense an
abnormality, seek
medical attention. Consult a doctor immediately if any aller- gic reactions occur. Do not allow children to touch the tire sealant.CAUTION If the vehicle body is contaminated by the tire sealant, wipe the tire sealant off immedi- ately with a wet cloth. Immediately wash clothes contaminated with tire sealant.
NOTE
 Do not pull out an object, such as a nail or screw, that penetrat
es the punctured tire.
 Move the vehicle so that the tire valve is positioned away from the point where the tire touches the ground. If the valve is nearthe point where the tire touches the ground, the sealant may not enter the tire easily.
NOTE
 In cold conditions (when the ambient tem- perature is 32 °F {0 °C} or lower), thicken- ing of the tire sealan
t can make the tire
sealant hard to squeeze out of the bottle. Warm the bottle between your hands inside the vehicle.

18. When you have inflated the tire to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor,bottle, and other item
s in the vehicle and
make sure that the seat cushion is properly secured. (Refer to “Tire repair kit storage”on page 8-5.) Promptly start driving the vehicle so that the tire sealant can spread evenly in the tire. Drive with great care.Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). Observe local speed limits.
19. After driving for 10 minutes or 3 miles (5
km), park the vehicle in safe place.Remove the air compressor from the stowed position. Check the tire pressure using the air pressure gauge on the com-pressor. If the tire pressure has apparently not dropped, the emergency repair proce- dure is complete. Continue the processfrom step 21. If the tire pressure is not sufficient, inflate the tire to the specified pressure again and drive the vehicle carefully without exceeding a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).Before driving, stow
the compressor and
make sure that the rear seat cushion is properly secured.
20. After driving for 10 minutes or 3 miles (5
km) again, check the tire pressure usingthe air pressure gauge on the compressor. If the tire pressure has apparently not dropped, the emergency repair procedureis complete. Before driving, make sure that the compressor is stowed and the seat cushion is properly secured. You muststill not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). Observe local speed limits.
CAUTION If you sense any abnormality while driving, stop the vehicle and c
ontact a certified i-
MiEV dealer. Otherwise the tire pressure may drop before the em
ergency repair proce-
dure is completed,
rendering the vehicle
unsafe to drive.
CAUTION If the tire pressure is lower than the mini- mum permitted pressure
(18 psi {130 kPa}),
the tire cannot successful
ly be repaired with
the tire sealant. Do not drive the vehicle any further. Contact a certified i-MiEV dealer.
NOTE
 If the tire pressure has dropped below the specified level when you check it at the endof the repair procedure, do not drive the vehicle any further.
Contact a certified i-
MiEV dealer.  In cold conditions (when the ambient tem- perature is 32 °F {0 °C} or lower), the timeand driving distance
necessary unt
il comple-
tion of the repair can become longer than in warmer conditions, and th
e tire pressure may
drop below the specified level even after you have inflated the tire
the second time and
subsequently driven the
vehicle. If this hap-
pens, inflate the tire to the specified pressure once more, drive for about 10 minutes or 3 miles (5 km), then check the tire pressureagain. If the tire pressure has again dropped below the specified level, stop driving the vehicle and contact a certified i-MiEVdealer.

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
