NOTE
The MiEV Remote system uses radio waves.
The MiEV Remote can operate within
approximately 328 feet (100 m) from the
vehicle.
In the following environments or situations,
the MiEV Remote may not transmit and
receive radio waves correctly. As a result,
the remote may not operate properly.
• When the vehicle and the MiEV Remote
are separated by a concrete wall.
• When there is a metal wall between the
vehicle and the MiEV Remote.
• When the vehicle is surrounded by other
tall vehicles.
• When the vehicle and/or the MiEV Remote
is near a facility emitting strong radio
waves, such as a television tower, a trans-
former substation, a broadcasting station or
an airport.
• When other electrical equipment such as
computers or cell-phones are placed near
the MiEV Remote.
• When the MiEV Remote touches some-
thing metallic, or is covered by a metal
object.
• When batteries for the MiEV Remote are
weak.
Melody and buzzer from the MiEV Remote
can be turned on or off.
Refer to “To turn on/off melody and buzzer”
on page 3-45.
The transmitter signal will reach further
when the antenna of the MiEV Remote is
fully extended and held upright.
The onboard antenna is printed on the right
side delta glass of the vehicle.
When the MiEV Remote is not used for more
than 30 seconds, the MiEV Remote will
automatically turn off.
Some charge facilities have a timer function
which turns the power supply on and off
automatically. When using a charge facility
with this timer function, please adjust the
charging time set by the MiEV Remote to be
consistent with the timer used by the charg-
ing facility.
When you need additional MiEV Remotes,
please contact a certified i-MiEV dealer. Up
to four MiEV Remotes can be used per vehi-
cle.
