The power consumption of the electric motor, the air conditioning, and power generation by the regenerative brake are indicated.When the ready indicator comes on, the red needle will move to th
e neutral point (A) and
then move to the right or left according to theamount of power consumption or power gen- eration. [When the red needle moves to the right of the neutral point] This indicates that the electric motor unit and/or the air conditioning are consumingelectric energy from the main drive lithium- ion battery. The more the needle moves to the right, themore electrical energy
is being consumed.
[When the red needle moves to the left of the neutral point] This indicates that electric energy is beinggenerated by the regenerative brake and charged to the main dr
ive lithium-ion battery.
The more the needle moves to the left, themore electric energy
is being generated.

Odometer, trip odometer, dash lights bright- ness indicator, service reminder, cruising
range indicator, and outside temperature are displayed.

The display is changed every time the resetbutton (A) is briefly pressed.
Energy usage indicator
NOTE
 When the main drive lithium-ion battery is at or near full charge, or
the main drive lithium-
ion battery temperature is too high or toolow, the needle in the energy usage indicator may not move to the left of the neutral point, since the main drive lithium-ion battery can-not receive charge.

The odometer indicates the total distance the vehicle has traveled.
N00572400020
The trip odometer shows the distance traveledsince the last time it was reset. There are two trip odometer displays: and
.
Trip odometer can be used to measure the distance traveled since the current trip began. At the same time, Trip odometer can be used to measure the distance from a secondlocation. To zero the counter, press and hold the reset button for more than 1 second. Only the cur-rently displayed va
lue will be reset.
If trip odometer is displayed, for exam-ple, only trip odometer
will be reset.

the next recommended
periodic maintenance
inspection is required. When the next inspection is nearly due, the display shows “------”.

NOTE
 The cruising range indicator and outside temperature display are not indicated whenthe electric motor switch is in the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.  If there is no operation for about 10 seconds when the meter illumination control or ser- vice reminder is shown, the display returnsto the odometer.

NOTE
 Both trip odometer and trip odometer
can measure trips up to 9999.9
miles/kilometers.  If the 12V starter battery is disconnected for a long time, both of th
ese displays will be
reset to “0”.

1. The display shows the driving distance or number of months remaining until thenext periodic inspection. 2. This informs you that a periodic inspec- tion is due. Contact a certified i-MiEVdealer to have the system checked. At this time, a spanner mark is shown for a few seconds whenever the electric motor switch is turned from the “LOCK”position or the “ACC” position to the “ON” position. 3. After your vehicle is
inspected at a certi-
fied i-MiEV dealer, it displays the time and miles (km) until
the next periodic
inspection.
With the electric motor switch in the “LOCK” position or the “ACC” position, it is possible to reset the spanner mark (A) and “------” indication (B). When they have been
reset, the driving dis-
tance or number of m
onths remaining until
the next periodic inspection are shown and the spanner mark (A) is no longer shown every time the electric motor switch is turnedfrom the “LOCK” position or the “ACC” position to the “ON” position.
1. Push the reset button (D) to view the driv- ing distance or number of months remain-ing until the next periodic inspection. 2. Give the reset button (D) a long push (at least 2 seconds) to ma
ke the spanner mark
(A) start flashing. (If you do not touch the reset button for about
10 seconds while
the spanner mark is
flashing, the display
will revert to its original indication.) 3. Give the reset button (D) a gentle push while the spanner mark is flashing. The “------” indication (B
) will change to
“cLEAr” (C). 4. The driving distance or number of monthsremaining until the next periodic inspec- tion will be shown.
NOTE
 The indicated distance decreases in steps of 100miles (100 km). The indicated number ofmonths decreases in steps of one month.
 It is possible to change the settings for the service reminder.For further information, we recommend youto consult a certified i-MiEV dealer.

Each time you press the
dash lights illumina-
tion button (B), the brightness of the instru- ments changes.
N00572700036
This displays the approximate cruising range(how many more miles
or kilometres you can
drive). When the cruising range becomes short, the indicatio
n changes to “---”.
CAUTIONThe customer is responsible for making sure that regular inspections
and maintenance are
performed.Inspections and mainte
nance must be per-
formed to prevent accidents and malfunc- tions.NOTE
 It is not possible to re
set the “------” indica-
tion (B) with the electric motor switch in the “ON” position.  When a certain distance has been driven and a certain period has elapsed after appearance of the “------” indicati
on (B), the indication
is automatically re
set and the number of
months until the next
periodic inspection is
shown.  If you accidentally reset
the display, consult
a certified i-MiEV dealer for assistance.
Dash lights brightness indicator
A- Brightness display B- Dash lights illumination button
NOTE
 You can adjust to 4 different levels for when the parking lights or
headlights are illumi-
nated and 4 for when they are not.  If you press and hold the button for longer than about 1 second, the brightness automati- cally scrolls through its different levels, andstops scrolling when you release the button. Select your desired
level of brightness.
 When the combination headlights and dim- mer switch is in the “AUTO” position, the meter illumination switches automatically tothe adjusted brightne
ss, depending on the
brightness outsi
de the vehicle.
Bright Dim
The brightness level
of the instruments is
stored when the electric motor switch isturned off.  If the 12V starter battery is disconnected for a long time, these level of brightness will bereset.
Cruising range indicator
NOTE
 The cruising range is displayed based on the past drive data. It ma
y vary depending on the
driving condition (road condition, driving situation, etc.) and
air conditioning operation
status.For example, the cruising range can be short- ened by driving on congested roads, by driv- ing uphill, by repeated ha
rd acceleration, and
by use of the air cond
itioner and heater.
When the 12V starter battery terminal is dis- connected, the power consumption data of the main drive lithium-ion battery in the pastis deleted. A differen
t value from before may
be displayed. Be sure
to use the display only
for reference.NOTE

When the electric motor switch is in the “ON” position and the
remaining bar of the
energy level gauge shows 2 bars or less, thewarning indicator (A) and the charging bars (B) flash as follows: When the energy level gauge shows 2 bars: The warning indicator flashes.When the energy level gauge shows 1 bar: The warning indicator and the charging bars flash alternately. Recharge the main drive lithium-ion battery as soon as possible.
F- Battery is fully charged. E- Charge the battery.
NOTE
 The charging indicator
is also illuminated
during charging. Refer to “Charging indi
cator” on page 5-44.
Low energy warning indicator
NOTE
If the energy level gauge shows 0 bars during use of the air conditioning, the cooling orheating may stop opera
tion and the mode is
changed to fan only.  If the energy level gauge shows 0 bars, the power down warning light
is illuminated to
control the output.  If the energy level gauge shows 2 bars while the main drive lithium-ion battery is being charged, the warning i
