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 indication changes to “---”.
The customer is responsible for making sure
that regular inspections and maintenance are
performed.
Inspections and maintenance must be per-
formed to prevent accidents and malfunc-
tions.
It is not possible to reset 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 “------” indication (B), the indication
is automatically reset 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
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, and
stops 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 to
the adjusted brightness, depending on the
brightness outside the vehicle.
The brightness level of the instruments is
stored when the electric motor switch is
turned off.
If the 12V starter battery is disconnected for
a long time, these level of brightness will be
reset.
Cruising range indicator
The cruising range is displayed based on the
past drive data. It may 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 hard acceleration, and
by use of the air conditioner and heater.
When the 12V starter battery terminal is dis-
connected, the power consumption data of
the main drive lithium-ion battery in the past
is deleted. A different value from before may
be displayed. Be sure to use the display only
for reference.
