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 by
observing the following precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km).
Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during
the break-in period.
 Do not overload the vehicle. Observe the
seating capacity (See “Cargo load precau-
tions” on page 6-10).
 Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing.

The electronic immobilizer 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 start attempt can only be
achieved (subject to certain conditions), using
a key “registered” to the immobilizer system.
All of the keys provided with your new vehi-
cle have been programmed to the vehicle’s
electronics.

Keys
NOTE

The key number (A) is stamped on the key
number plate as shown in the illustration.
Make a record of the key number and store
the key and key number plate in separate
places, so that you can order a key from a
certified i-MiEV dealer if the original keys
are lost.
 The key is a precision electronic device with
a built-in signal transmitter. 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 on
top 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 magnetic objects such as
key holders.
• Keep away from devices that produce mag-
netism, such as audio systems, computers
and 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 is
designed so that it will 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 “Electronic immobilizer”
for details and key usage.
