If you press the flasher switch, the front and rear turn signals will flash intermittently, and so will the hazard warn
ing lights. This is an
emergency warning syst
em and should not be
used when the vehicle is in motion, except for emergencies. If you need to leave your vehicle, the flasherswill keep working after the key is removed from the electric motor switch.
N00522801433
The front fog lights illuminate only when theheadlights are on low beam. Turning the knob in the direction of the “ON”position turns on the front fog lights as well as the indicator in the instrument cluster. To turn them off, turn the knob in the direction ofthe “OFF” position. The knob will return to the neutral position when it is released.
NOTE
 A light in the instrument panel flashes to show when the front and rear turn signallights are working properly. If this light flashes fa
ster than usual, check
for a burned out light bulb or malfunctioningconnection. If the panel light does not come on when the lever is moved, check for a blown fuse or aburned out bulb in the panel. Have the vehicle insp
ected by a certified i-
MiEV dealer.  It is possible to modify functions as follows: • Deactivate the turn signal light 3-flash function for lane changes. • Adjust the time required to operate the lever for the 3-flash function. See a certified i-MiEV dealer for details.

If the vehicle breaks down 8-2 For emergencies

N00836300220
If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder, orthe shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly, with the hazard lights flashing, until you come to a safe stopping place. Keep theflashers flashing. If the ready indicator light goes out while driving, the brakes a
nd steering will continue
to work, but without power assist, so more effort will be required
for braking and steer-
ing. Stop the vehicle on the shoulder of the road and turn on the hazard warning flashers.
N00836400742
If the electric motor unit cannot be energizedbecause the 12V starter battery is weak or dead, you can start it with the battery fromanother vehicle using jumper cables.
1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch bands or bracelets
that might make an
accidental electrical contact. 2. Position the vehi
cles close enough
together so that the jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles are nottouching each other.
3. Set the parking brake firmly on your vehi- cle and move the selector lever into the“P” (PARK) position. 4. Set the parking brake firmly on the other vehicle. Put the automatic transaxle in “P”(PARK) or the manual transaxle in “N” (Neutral). 5. Turn the ignition switch (the electricmotor switch) on each vehicle to the “LOCK” position. 6. Remove the battery
cover, and then make
sure your 12V starter
battery electrolyte is
at the proper level. (Refer to “Checking 12V starter battery electrolyte level” on page 9-8.)
If the vehicle breaks down Jump-starting
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of igniting flammable gas that may be emitted from the 12V starter battery, carefully read this section before jump-starting the vehicle.
 Do not try to start the electric motor unit by pushing or towing the vehicle. This cancause an accident re
sulting in serious
injury or death and
can damage the vehi-
cle.CAUTION Do not attempt jump st
arting the 12V starter
battery while the main
drive lithium-ion bat-
tery is being charged. Doing so could dam-age the vehicle or charging equipment.NOTE
 Do not use jumper cables if they have dam- age or corrosion.CAUTION Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12V battery. If the other system is not 12V, both systems can be damaged.WA R N I N G
NOTE
 Turn off all lights, heat
er, and othe
r electrical
loads. This will
help avoid sparks.
WA R N I N GIf the electrolyte fluid is not visible, or looks frozen, DO NOT ATTEMPT JUMPSTARTING!! The battery might spli
t open or explode if
the temperature is below the freezing point or if it is not filled to the properlevel.

If you drive your vehicle with a low battery charge, after the electric motor unit has beenstarted by using jumper
cables, it can cause
the anti-lock braking sy
stem warning light to
illuminate. This is only due to the low batteryvoltage. It is not a problem with the brake system. If this happens, fully charge the 12V starter battery and ensure the charging system is operating properly.

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.
