Battery
E08300101040
There are two types of batteries installed in your vehicle: a drive battery for operating the
motor (electric motor unit) and air condition-
ing as well as an auxiliary battery for starting the Plug-in Hybrid EV system and operatingthe lamps, wipers, etc.
This chapter explains charging of the drive battery.NOTEl The auxiliary battery is automatically charg-
ed while the ready indicator is illuminated orduring charge for the drive battery.
Refer to “Ready indicator” on page 6-42.
l If the auxiliary battery is flat, the Plug-in
Hybrid EV system cannot be started.Refer to “Emergency starting” on page
9-02.Basic knowledge for
charging E08300201096
There are two types of charging: normalcharging and quick charging.
Normal charging is performed through the on
board charger using rated AC 220-240V out-
let as the power source
The rated AC voltage may differ from coun-
try to country.

CAUTIONlDuring quick charging, the quick charge
connector cannot be removed because it is locked. Do not touch or remove the quick
charge connector during charging. Doing so, the quick charge connector might be dam-
aged. If you want to stop the quick charging
on the way, stop the charging according to
the procedures of a quick charger, and re- move the quick charge connector after con-
firming the charging is stopped.NOTEl There is a hole on the charge port for water
drainage. If this hole is blocked and watergets trapped in the charge port, do not
charge. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
l If the charge port is frozen, melt the ice us-
ing a hair drier. Forcing the charge connec-
tor to connect while frozen could result in malfunction.
5. Connect the quick charge connector in
the quick charge port to begin charging.
For connecting and disconnecting, fol- low the instruction manual for each
quick charger.
6. Make sure that the charging indicator
(E) on the instrument cluster is illumina-
ted.If the charging indicator is not illumina-
ted, charging is not started.
Follow the manual of each quick charg-
er.
NOTEl When the quick charge connector is connec-
ted to the charge port, the charging indicator
is blinking. When charging is started, the charging indicator is illuminated.NOTEl If one of the doors is opened or the multi-in-
formation display switch is operated, thedrive battery level (F) displays in the multi-
information display and it can be checked
the drive battery level.
Although the predicted charging time dis- play (G) blinks, the charging time for thequick charging is about 30 minutes and dis-
played “--:--” in the screen and you cannot confirm the remaining charging time.
l Operation noise may be heard from the vehi-
cle body during quick charging.
This noise comes from the operation of the drive battery cooling system, and it is not a malfunction.
l Since the drive battery cooling system uses
cool air of the air conditioning, the air condi-tioning is automatically operated.
After quick charging, if the area under the vehicle is wet, transparent and loose, it is de- humidified water from the air conditioning
and not a malfunction.
7. Charging is complete when the charging
indicator turns off.
Disconnect the quick charge connector according to the manual of the quick
charger.

WARNINGlDo not use the
MITSUBISHI Remote
Control if children, persons in need of care, pets, etc. are in the vehicle. Even if the remote climate control is used, thecabin may become hot or cold due to somereasons such as automatic stop of the sys-
tem. The cabin temperature may quickly
rise in sunshine, which poses a risk of heat
stroke and dehydration. In cold weather, on the other hand, the cabin temperature
may quickly drop. Either of which could lead to death in the worst case.
l The cooling fan in the engine compart-
ment may operate automatically when
charging or when operating air condition- er. Do not bring your hand close to the
cooling fan during charging.CAUTIONl Do not use the charging timer or the remote
climate control with a car cover.NOTEl Keep the following points in mind when us-
ing a wireless LAN device:
• Communication speed and range vary de-
pending on the wireless LAN devices and the surrounding conditions (radio environ-
ment, obstacles, parking area environ- ment, etc.).NOTE• Due to the characteristics of radio waves,
communication speed tends to decrease as the communication distance increases.
Use your wireless LAN device at a short
distance from the vehicle for better re-
sponse.
• When a microwave oven or ISM (indus-
trial, scientific and medical) equipment is being used, the communication speed and
range of wireless LAN devices may de- crease. Use your wireless LAN device
away from these appliances and equip-
ment.
• If a wireless LAN device and Bluetooth
(registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG, Inc.) are used simultaneously, the com-
munication speed and range of each de- vice may decrease. Use your wireless
LAN device away from Bluetooth devi- ces.
l Wireless LAN devices may not communi-
cate with the vehicle, or may not operate
normally or stably in the following environ- ment or situations. Check that the device cancommunicate with your vehicle before use.
• There is an obstruction such as a concrete
or metal wall between the vehicle and
wireless LAN device.
• The vehicle is surrounded by tall vehicles
in a parking lot.
• There are facilities nearby that emit strong
radio waves, such as a TV tower, trans-
former substation, broadcasting station or airport.NOTE• There is a communication device such as
a mobile phone or radio, or an electric de- vice such as a personal computer near thewireless LAN device.
• The wireless LAN device is in contact
with or covered by a metal object.
• The battery of the wireless LAN device
has run down.
l The
MITSUBISHI Remote Control cannot
be used under the following conditions:

• The
MITSUBISHI Remote Control appli-
cation software is not installed.
• The
MITSUBISHI Remote Control appli-
cation software is not running.
• The wireless LAN device is not registered
on the vehicle or it is not connected to the
vehicle.
• The wireless LAN device is out of the
communication range.
• The wireless LAN device is connected to
other wireless LAN device.
• The wireless LAN device has failed, or its
battery has run out.
l Some charging facilities have a timer func-
tion that turns the power on or off at a spe- cific time of the day. When charging at a fa-cility with a timer function, make sure that
the charging timer is set within the time peri-
od when the power in the charging facility is on.

NOTElThe auxiliary battery is automatically and
periodically charged using electrical power
stored in the drive battery.
l While the remote climate control is operat-
ing or the charging, the cooling fan or air conditioner compressor may start operating and its sound may be heard. This is normal.
l The remote climate control operates in its
own mode based on the mode selected on
the wireless LAN device, regardless of the switch setting of the vehicle’s air condition-
er.
l Air conditioning performance may deterio-
rate or the remaining charge in the drive bat-tery may decrease under the following con-
ditions:
• In extremely hot weather.
• In hot sunshine.
• In extremely cold weather.
l If the remote climate control is started dur-
ing charging, the time until full charge may extend or the charging rate may decrease.
l When the remaining quantity of the drive
battery is decreased, the remote climate con-
trol does not operate or it may stop on the way.NOTEl When the auxiliary battery is removed, the
timer control of the MITSUBISHI Remote
Control is reset and each function of the MITSUBISHI Remote Control can not be
used. Also the drive battery can not be warmed up.

WARNINGlWhen using electro-medical devices other
than implantable cardiac pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators,
contact the electromedical device manu- facturer ahead of time to determine theaffects of radio waves on the devices. Elec-
tromedical device operations could be ad-
versely effected by radio waves.
You can limit the possible operations of
the keyless operation system in the fol-
lowing ways. (The keyless operation system can be used as a keyless entry system.) Please consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. • You can limit operations to locking
and unlocking the doors and tailgate.
• You can limit operations to starting
the engine.
• The keyless operation system can be
disabled.
When keyless operation system opera- tions are modified, the operating trans-mitters are as follows. • Only locking and unlocking doors or
tailgate: exterior transmitter and inte-
rior transmitters
• Only starting the engine: interior
transmitter
NOTEl The keyless operation key uses an ultra-
weak electromagnetic wave. In the following
cases, the keyless operation system may not
operate properly or may be unstable.
• When there is equipment nearby that
emits strong radio waves, such as: a pow-
er station, a radio/TV broadcasting station or an airport.
• The keyless operation system is carried
together with a communications device such as a cellular phone or radio set, or
with an electronic device such as a per- sonal computer.
• The keyless operation key is touching or
covered by a metal object.
• A keyless entry system is being used
nearby.
• When the keyless operation key battery is
worn out.
• When the keyless operation key is placed
in an area with strong radio waves or noise.
In such cases, use the emergency key.
Refer to “To operate without using the
keyless operation function” on page 4-14.NOTEl Because the keyless operation key receives
signals in order to communicate with the transmitters in the vehicle, the battery con-tinually wears down regardless of keylessoperation key use. The battery life is 1 to 3
years, depending on usage conditions. When the battery wears out, replace the battery ac-cording to the description in this manual or
have it replaced at your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Refer to “Procedure for replacing the remote control switch battery” on page 4-05.
l Because the keyless operation key continual-
ly receives signals, strong radio wave recep-
tion could affect battery wear. Do not leave
the key near a TV, personal computer, or other electronic device.Operating range of the keyless

The airbags deployment produces a sudden,loud noise, and releases some smoke and
powder, but these conditions are not injuri- ous, and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
People with respiratory problems may feel some temporary irritation from chemicals
used to produce the deployment; open the
windows after airbag deployment, if safe to
do so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deploy- ment, so there is little danger of obscured vi-sion.CAUTIONl Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid speed.
In certain situations, contact with inflatingairbags can result in abrasions, bruises, light
cuts, and the like.WARNINGl IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE
PROPERLY SEATED.
A driver or front passenger too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel
during airbag deployment can be killed or seriously injured.
Airbags inflate very fast, and with great force.
If the driver and front passenger are not
properly seated and restrained, the air-
bags may not protect you properly, and could cause serious or fatal injuries whenit inflates.
l Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or sit
with your lower legs too close to the in-
strument panel, or lean head or chest close to the steering wheel or instrument panel. Do not put feet or legs on or againstthe instrument panel.
l Place all infants and small children in the
rear seat and properly restrained using an
appropriate child restraint system.
The rear seat is the safest place for infants
and children.WARNINGl Infants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the in-strument panel or be held in your arms or on your lap. They could be seriously in-jured or killed in a collision, including when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in the rear seat in an ap- propriate child restraint system. See the
“Child restraint” section of this owner’s
manual.
