Before replacing a bulb, be sure the light is
off. Do not touch the glass part of the new
bulb with your bare fingers; the oil from your
skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy
the bulb when it gets hot.

The bulb should only be replaced with a new
bulb with the same rating and type. The type
and rating are listed on the base of the bulb.

 If the replacement fuse blows again after a
short time, have the electrical system
checked by a certified i-MiEV dealer to find
and correct the cause.
Replacement of light bulbs
CAUTION
 Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after
being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burned.
NOTE
 If you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, it is recommended that
these procedures be carried out by a certified
i-MiEV dealer.
 Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a light and lens.
CAUTION
 When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes
becomes temporarily foggy. This is the same
phenomenon as when window glass mists up
on a humid day, and does not indicate a func-
tional problem.
When the light is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water collects
inside the light, please have it checked by a
certified i-MiEV dealer.
