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.

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.

Before replacing a bulb,
be sure the light is
off. Do not touch the glass part of the newbulb with your bare fingers; the oil from your skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy the bulb when it gets hot.
N00943000099
The bulb should only be replaced with a newbulb with the same rating and type. The typeand rating are listed on the base of the bulb.

rried out by
a certified
i-MiEV dealer. Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body when removing a light and lens.CAUTION
