If the warning light illuminates when the out- side air temperature is very low, move thevehicle to a warmer location.
If the warning light illuminates after the vehi- cle has been driven continuously uphill orwhen the outside air temperature is very high, stop the vehicle in a safe place so the electric motor unit and/or the main drive lithium-ionbattery can cool down. When they have cooled down, the warning light will go off. If the warning light does not turn off, contact acertified i-MiEV dealer.

Rotate the switch to operate the lights.
Power down warning light
If this warning light illumi-nates, the power provided by the electric motor will be reduced and the vehicle willbe only able to move at low speeds. This warning light will illu-minate;  When the energy level in the main drive lithium-ion battery is near empty.  When temperature of the electric motor unit or the main drive lithium-ion battery is too high or toolow.  When voltage of the main drive lithium-ion batterybecomes low.
If the energy level gauge shows 0 bar, the main drivelithium-ion battery is near empty and must be charged as soon as possible. Refer to“Charging” on page 3-13.
NOTE
 When the power down warning light illumi- nates, avoid rapid st
arts and aggressive
acceleration.  Illumination of the
power down warning
light does not indica
te a malfunction.
 If the power down warn
ing light illuminates
while the air conditioning is used, the cool- ing or heating may stop operating and only the fan will operate.

NOTE
 Do not leave the headli
ghts and other lights
on for a long period of time while the readyindicator is not illu
minated. A run down 12V
starter battery
could result.
 When it rains, or wh
en the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes becomes foggy. This is the same as whenwindow glass mists up on a humid day, and does not indicate a pr
oblem. When the light
is switched on, the heat will dry out the fog.However, if water collects inside the light, have it checked by a certified i-MiEV dealer.

N00522600506
When changing lanes, or to making a gradual turn, hold the lever in the “lane change” posi- tion (1). It will return to the neutral positionwhen you let go. Use the full position (2) when making a normal turn. The lever will return to the neutral position when the turn iscomplete. There may be times when the lever does not return to th
e neutral position. This
usually happens when
the steering wheel is
turned only slightly. You
can easily return the
lever by hand. Also, when you move the lever to (1) slightlythen release it, the turn signal lights and indi- cator in the instrument cluster will flash three times.
N00522700305
If you press the flasher switch, the front andrear turn signals will flash intermittently, and so will the hazard warning lights. This is an emergency warning system and should not beused when the vehicle is in motion, except for emergencies. If you need to leave your
vehicle, the flashers
will keep working after the key is removed from the electric motor switch.
 If you turn the lights off with the headlights set to high-beam illumi
nation, the headlights
are automatically returned to their low-beamsetting when the combination headlights and dimmer switch is next turned to the “ ”
Turn signal lever
NOTE
NOTE
 A light in the instrument panel flashes to show when the front and rear turn signallights are working properly. If this light flashes fast
er than usual, check
for a burned out light
bulb or malfunctioning
connection. If the panel light does not come on when the lever is moved, check
for a blown fuse or a
burned 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.

N00836301243
If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder, orthe shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly, with the hazard lights flashing, until you come to a safe stopping place. Keep theflashers flashing. If the ready indicator light goes out while driving, the brakes a
nd steering will continue
to work, but without power assist, so more effort will be required
for braking and steer-
ing. Stop the vehicle on the shoulder of the road and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If you need to push your vehicle, turn theelectric motor switch to the “ON” position, and place the selector lever in the “N” (NEU- TRAL) position.
N00836400742
If the electric motor unit cannot be energizedbecause the 12V starter battery is weak ordead, you can start it with the battery from another vehicle using jumper cables.
1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch bands or bracelets
that might make an
accidental electrical contact. 2. Position the vehi
cles close enough
together so that the jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles are nottouching each other.
3. Set the parking brake firmly on your vehi- cle and move the selector lever into the “P” (PARK) position. 4. Set the parking brake firmly on the othervehicle. Put the automatic transaxle in “P”5. Turn the ignition switch (the electric motor switch) on each vehicle to the “LOCK” position. 6. Remove the battery
cover, and then make
sure your 12V starter
battery electrolyte is
at the proper level. (Refer to “Checking 12V starter battery electrolyte level” onpage 9-8.)
If the vehicle breaks down Jump-starting
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of igniting flammable gas that may be em
itted from the 12V
starter battery, carefully read this sectionbefore jump-starting the vehicle. Do not try to start the electric motor unit by pushing or towing the vehicle. This can cause an accident re
sulting in serious
injury or death and
can damage the vehi-
cle.CAUTION Do not attempt jump st
arting the 12V starter
battery while the main
drive lithium-ion bat-
tery is being charged. Doing so could dam-age the vehicle or charging equipment.NOTE
 Do not use jumper cables if they have dam- age or corrosion.
CAUTION Check the other vehicle.
It must have a 12V
battery. If the other system is not 12V, bothsystems can be damaged.NOTE
 Turn off all lights, heat
er, and othe
r electrical
loads. This will
help avoid sparks.

If you drive your vehicle with a low battery charge, after the electric motor unit has beenstarted by using jumper
cables, it can cause
the anti-lock braking sy
stem warning light to
illuminate. This is only due to the low batteryvoltage. It is not a problem with the brake system. If this happens, fully charge the 12V starter battery and ensure the charging system is operating properly.
