N00508700343
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.

feel a shock from the brake pedal if you depress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-tion. • When the electric motor switch is set to the “ON” position. • When the vehicle is driven for a while after the electric motor unit is turned on.
 When the ASC is acti
vated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin- ing sound from under the hood. This indicates that the system is operatingnormally. It does not i
