short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or
less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:  How various systems in your vehicle were operating;  Whether or not the driver safety belt was buckled/fastened;  How far (if at all) the driver was depress- ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,  How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehi-
cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, ot
her parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special equip- ment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

The driver’s seat posit
ion sensor is attached
to the seat rail and provides the airbag control unit with information
on the seat’s fore-aft
position. The airbag control unit controlsdeployment of the driver’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receives from this sensor.If there is a problem involving the driver’s seat position sensor, th
e SRS warning light in
the instrument panel will come on. Refer to“SRS warning light” on page 4-26.
N00418000351
The passenger’s seat oc
cupant classification
sensor system is attached to the front passen- ger seat cushion and provides the airbag con- trol unit with inform
ation regarding the
occupant on the front passenger seat. The air- bag control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front airbag in accordance withthe information it receives from this system. The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when the system senses no occu-pant on the front passenger’s seat or a child in a child restraint system. In this case, the pas- senger’s airbag off indi
cator will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s ai
rbag off indicator” on
page 4-25. If there is a problem involving the passen-ger’s seat occupant cl
assification sensor sys-
tem, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS warninglight” page 4-26.
NOTE
 EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no dataare recorded by the EDR under normal driv- ing conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) arerecorded. However, ot
her parties, such as
law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying
data routinely acquire
d during a crash inves-
tigation.

Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe place, put the selec- tor lever to the “P” (PARK) position and turn off the electric motor unit. Restart the electric motor unit and check tosee whether the light goes out after a few minutes driving; if it then remains off during driving, there is no problem.However, if the warning light does not disap- pear, or if it comes on
again when the vehicle
is driven, we recommend you to have thevehicle checked. The ABS and brake force distribution func- tion may not work, so hard braking could make the vehicle unstable.Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and we rec- ommend you to have th
e vehicle checked.

The power steering system operates while the electric motor unit is running. It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel. The power steering system has mechanicalsteering capability in ca
se the power assist is
lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea- son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-cle, but you will notice it takes much more effort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi- cle inspected at a certified i-MiEV dealer.
If the warning light illuminates while driving If only the ABS warning light illu- minate If the ABS warning light and brake warning light illuminate at the same time
NOTE
 The warning light may
be illuminated when
the electric motor unit is started while the12V starter battery voltage
is low, but this is
not an ABS malfunction. When the main drive lithium-ion battery is charged, the 12V starte
r battery is charged at
the same time, and the
warning light will go
out. If the warning light does
not go out or illumi-
nates from time to time even after the battery is charged, take your ve
hicle to a certified i-
MiEV dealer and have
the system checked as
soon as possible.  After driving on snow or icy roads, remove any snow and ice whic
h may have been left
around the wheels. On ve
hicles that have an
anti-lock braking system, be careful not todamage the wheel spee
d sensors (A) or the
cables located at each wheel.Front

 Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while still
keeping good visibil-
ity, and good control of the steering wheel, brakes, accele
rator, and controls.
Check the instrument panel indicators forany possible problem.  Move the front passe
nger seat as far back
as possible.  Make sure that infa
nts and small children
are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
Check these by selecti
ng the defroster mode,
and set the blower swit
ch on high. You should
be able to feel the air blowing against the windshield. (Refer to “Defrosting or defogging the wind- shield and door windows” on page 7-9.) Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear patterns.
Look for stones, nails,
glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or sidewall cracks. Check the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires for proper pressures. Replace your tires beforethey are heavily worn out.
As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk ofdamage to the tire inflation pressure sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, th
erefore, be performed
only by a certified i-MiEV dealer. Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and
high-beam indicators on
the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for wa
ter, oil, or other
leaks. Make sure all the fluid levels are cor- rect.

Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, andyour safest driving, cannot guarantee that youcan avoid an accident or injury. However, if you give extra attention to the following areas, you can better protect yourself andyour passengers:
 Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather conditions. Leave plentyof stopping distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.  Before changing lanes, check your mir- rors and use your turn signal light.  While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicyc
lists, and pedestrians.
 Always obey applicable
laws and regula-
tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Always leave room for unexpected events, such as sudden braking.
N00629400416
 Check the 12V starter battery, including terminals and cables. During extremely cold weather, the 12V starter battery willnot be as strong and
its power level may
drop. Before driving the vehicle, check to see ifthe headlights are as bright as normal. Charge or replace the 12V starter battery if necessary. During extreme coldweather, it is possibl
e that a very low 12V
starter battery could freeze.
