Tire pressure monitoring system
N00530200426
The tire pressure monitoring system uses tire inflation pressure
sensors (A) on the wheels to monitor the tire inflation pres-
sures. The system only indicates when a tire is significantly
under-inflated.
CAUTION
!
● If an abnormal condition occurs in the system while
driving, the and indicators will illuminate.
In these cases, follow these procedures:
• Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop the elec-
tric motor unit. Restart the electric motor unit
again and check whether the and indicators
go out. If these indicators go out, there is no abnor-
mal condition.
If the and indicators remain on even after
your vehicle is driven a short distance after re-
starting the electric motor unit, have the vehicle
inspected by a certified i-MiEV dealer as soon as
possible.
● When towing the vehicle with only the rear wheels
raised off the ground, do not place the electric motor
switch in the “ON” position. Placing the electric
motor switch in the “ON” position could cause the
ASC to operate, resulting in an accident.
For details, refer to “Towing” on page 6-19.
