N00522700305
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.
N00950301916
If the replacement fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical systemchecked by a certified i-
MiEV dealer to find
and correct the cause.
Replacement of light bulbs
CAUTION Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after being turned off. When replacing a bulb, wait for it to coolsufficiently before t
ouching it. You could
otherwise be burned.NOTE
If you are unsure of how to carry out the work as required, it is recommended that these procedures be ca
rried out by
a certified
i-MiEV dealer. Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body when removing a light and lens.CAUTION
When it rains, or wh
en the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimesbecomes temporarily foggy. This is the samephenomenon as when window glass mists up on a humid day, and does not indicate a func- tional problem.When the light is switched on, the heat will remove the fog. However, if water collects inside the light, please
have it checked by a
certified i-MiEV dealer.
