Carefully read instru
ctions on “Precautions
during charging the main drive lithium-ionbattery” on page 3-14,
described in this sec-
tion and also instructions for a quick charger you uses, and follow them.
1. Fully apply the parking brake and move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) posi-tion. 2. Stop the electric devices such as lamps, air conditioning, etc.
and turn the electric
motor switch to the “LOCK” position.

WA R N I N G Be sure to use a qu
ick charger compatible
with i-MiEV. Use of a non-compatible quick charger may cause a fire or mal- function.For the quick charger compatible with i- MiEV, consult an certified i-MiEV dealer. For operation of a quick charger, follow instructions for each quick charger. Never connect or disc
onnect the charger
with a wet hand. Never pull the cable to disconnect the charger. During charging, the
cooling fans under
the hood may automa
tically be operated
even if the electric motor switch is in the“LOCK” position. Ke
ep your hands away
from the cooling fan during charging. As the quick charge connector is heavier in comparison to th
e regular charge con-
nector, allowing it to drop could causedamage to the vehicl
e or charge connector
or personal injury.
CAUTION If the charge connector cannot easily be con- nected to the charge port, do not force theconnection. Foreign mate
rial may be in the
charge connector or charge port, or the charging device may not
be compatible with
your vehicle. Contact a certified i-MiEVdealer.NOTE
 Repeatedly performi
ng only quick charging
can reduce the batter
y capacity. Regular
charging is recommended unless quickcharging is necessary.  Before using a publicly

A crash or impact significant enough to require an emergency response for conven- tional vehicles would
also require the same
response for electric vehicles. Also follow the instruct
ions described below
to avoid severe burns a
nd electrical shock that
may result in serious injury or death.
High-Voltage components
WA R N I N G The EV (Electric Vehicle) system uses high voltage up to DC 330 volt. The system canbe hot during and after starting and when the vehicle is shut off. Be careful of both the high voltage and
the high temperature.
Follow the warning labels that are attached to the vehicle. Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts, exposed elec- trical components, cables or connectors.Failure to follow this instruction can result in severe burns
or electric shock
causing serious injury
or death. High-volt-
age cables are colore
d orange. Th
e vehicle
high voltage system has no user service- able parts. Take your
vehicle to a Certified
i-MiEV dealer for an
y necessary mainte-
nance. Always assume the hi
gh voltage battery
and associated compon
ents are energized
and fully charged.

WA R N I N G If your vehicle is dr
ivable, pull your vehi-
cle off the road to a safe, nearby locationand remain on the scene.Also, if possible, do
the follow
ing opera-
tions and stay out of the way of any oncoming traffic while awaiting thearrival of emergency responders.• Apply chocks to the wheels.• Move the selector
lever to the “P”
(PARK) position.• Apply the parking brake.• Open the windows,
doors and liftgate.
• Turn the electric motor switch to the “LOCK” position.• Turn on the hazard warning flashers.• Move the key away fr
om the vehicle to
prevent unintended start-up of the sys-tem by inadvertent contact with a switch or impact from the crash.
 Never touch high-vol
tage wiring, connec-
tors, and other high-vol
tage parts, such as
the inverter unit and main drive lithium-ion battery. An electric shock may occur if exposed electric wires are visible when viewed from inside
or outside of your
vehicle. For their locations, see “High- voltage components” on page 3-30. If the vehicle receives a strong impact to the floor while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the floor.

Children who have outgrown a child restraint system should be seated in the rear seat and wear the seat belt. If the shoulder belt crossestheir face or neck, and/
or the lap belt crosses
their stomach, a commercially available booster seat must be used, to raise the child sothat the shoulder belt
crosses their shoulder
and the lap belt remains positioned low across their hips. The booster seat should fitthe vehicle seat and ha
ve a label certifying
compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Mo
tor Vehicle Restraint
Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regula- tions.

The seat belt webbing may be cleaned withmild soap or detergent solution. Do not use an organic solvent. Allow the belts to dry in theshade. Do not allow them to retract until com- pletely dry. Do not attempt to bleach or re- dye the belts. The color may rub off and thewebbing strength may be affected. Regularly check your seat belt buckles and their release mechanisms for positive engage- ment and release of the latch plate. Check the
WA R N I N G Child restraint system tether anchors are designed only to with
stand loads from cor-
rectly fitted child restraint systems. Underno circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, for attaching other items, or equipment to the vehicle.
Children who have outgrown child restraint systems
WA R N I N G Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat belt
must be properly
restrained in an appropriate childrestraint system, to reduce their risk of serious injury or de
ath in an
accident.
A child should never be
left unattended in,
or unsupervised, around your vehicle. When you leave the
vehicle always take
the child out as well. Children can die from heat stroke if left or trapped inside the vehicle, especially on hot days. Keep your vehicle locked when not in use. Keep your vehicle keys away from chil- dren.

Advanced automobile manufacturing tech- niques permit you to operate your new vehi- cle without requiring
a long break-in period
of low-speed driving. However, you can add to the future perfor- mance and economy of your vehicle byobserving the followi
ng precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km). Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in period.  Do not overload the ve
hicle. Observe the
seating capacity (See “Cargo load precau-tions” on page 6-10).  Do not use this vehi
cle for trailer towing.
N00508800618
Two keys are provided. The keys fit all locks. Keep one in a safe place as a spare key.
N00509101846
The electronic immobilize
r is designed to sig-
nificantly reduce the
possibility of vehicle
theft. The purpose of the system is to immo-bilize the vehicle if
an invalid start is
attempted. A valid st
art attempt can only be
achieved (subject to ce
rtain conditions), using
a key “registered” to the immobilizer system. All of the keys provided with your new vehi- cle have been program
med to the vehicle’s
electronics.
Break-in recommendations Keys
NOTE
 The key number (A) is stamped on the key number plate as shown
in the illustration.
Make a record of th
e key number and store
the key and key number plate in separate places, so that you can order a key from acertified i-MiEV dealer if the original keys are lost.  The key is a precision
electronic device with
a built-in signal transm
itter. Please observe
the following in order to prevent damage. • Do not leave where it may be exposed to heat caused by direct sunlight, such as ontop of the dashboard. • Do not take the remote
control transmitter
apart. • Do not excessively bend the key or subject it to strong impacts. • Keep the remote control transmitter dry.• Keep away from magne
tic objects such as
key holders.
• Keep away from devi
ces that produce mag-
netism, such as audio systems, computersand televisions. • Do not clean with
ultrasonic cleaners.
• Do not leave the key where it may be exposed to high temperature or high humid- ity.
 As your vehicle is equipped with an elec- tronic immobilizer, the electric motor unit isdesigned so that it wi
ll not start if the ID
code registered in the immobilizer computer and the key’s ID code
do not match. Refer to
the section entitled “E
lectronic immobilizer”
for details and key usage.
