been running for an extended period of time.
• Under adverse weather conditions (rain,
snow, sand storms, etc.)*
• When the cover part in front of the sensor
and the sensor become dirty or have snow and ice* adhering to it.
• When water, snow or sand on the road are
extorted by the vehicle in front or an on- coming vehicle*.
*: When judging the state that detection per-
formance deterioration and the FCM can’t operate temporarily by these situations auto-
matically,“FCM TEMPORARILY NOT AVAILABLE” message is indicated, and a
“FCM OFF” indicator lights up.
Additionally, it may be indicated in the fol-
lowing situations.
• When the brake is overheating.
• When you are driving in light traffic with
few vehicles and obstacles in front.CAUTIONWhen the FCM will be in the state which can operate, indication is released automati-
cally. When the indication keeps going out,
there is an abnormality in the system. Please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
l Factors such as the positional relationship
between your vehicle and a vehicle in front,
driver’s own technique of steering the vehi-
cle and irregularly moving traffic due to ac-
cidents or vehicle trouble may deter the
FCM control and alarm from functioning.
l When the system recognizes the driver’s
steering or accelerating actions as evasive actions to avoid collision, FCM control and
alarm functions may be cancelled.
l The FCM control and alarm functions may
be triggered in the following situations.
CAUTION• When there is a structure (B) beside the
entrance of a curve and intersection.
• When running on a narrow iron bridge.

CAUTION•When your vehicle is on a chassis dyna-
mometer or free rollers.
• When the tyre pressure is not correct.
• When installing the spare tyre for emer-
gency.
• When snow traction device (tyre chains)
are attached.
l Improperly handling the system components
may result in such problems as degraded
sensor performance and ultimately in an ac- cident. Be sure to take the following precau-
tions to keep the system in good operating
conditions.
• Avoid application of strong shock loads to
the sensor and never tamper with or re- move the sensor mounting screws.
• The cover in front of the sensor and the
sensor should be kept clean.
• Do not cover the sensor mounted area of
the vehicle or the sensor cover with a
sticker or anything such as a grill guard etc.
• The sensor front cover should not be
modified or painted.
• Avoid using different size tyres from
those specified and maintain even tyre
wear.
• Do not modify the suspension of your ve-
hicle.CAUTIONl If the sensor mounted area of the vehicle is
deformed due to an accident or some other causes, turn off the system and please con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.NOTEl A sound will be heard during the activation
of automatic braking, this is a function of the brake control and is not abnormal.FCM ON/OFF switch

Vehicles with a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately60 cm (A) from the corner sensors, 150 cm
(B) from the back sensors, and 60 cm (C) or less from the ground surface, excluding the
area approximately 10 cm (D) from the
ground surface. The non-detection areas (E) are within approximately 20 cm (F) from thebumper.
NOTEl If the rear bumper has been exposed to an
impact, the corner or back sensors may failand prevent the system from functioning
properly. Have the vehicle inspected at a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.NOTEl The sensors do not detect objects located in
the area directly below or near the bumper. If the height of an object is lower than the
mounted position of the corner or back sen-
sors, the sensors may not continue detecting it even if they detected it initially.
For information on how to change the detec-
tion areas, please refer to “Changing the de- tection areas” on page 7-72.
CAUTIONl The reversing sensor system may not operate
properly under the following conditions:
• The sensors or surroundings are covered
with ice, snow, or mud.
• The sensors are frozen.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles, motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pour-
ing rain, splashing water, snow traction device (tyre chains), etc.).
• The sensors are extremely hot or cold
(while the vehicle is parked for a long pe- riod of time under a blazing sun or in coldweather).
• The vehicle tilts significantly.
• The vehicle is driven on a rough road
(with a bumpy, gravel, hilly, or grassy
surface).
• The vehicle is too close to an obstacle.CAUTION•The sensors or surroundings have been
wiped by hand, or stickers or accessorieshave been attached.
l The reversing sensor system may not proper-
ly detect the following:
• Objects that are thin, such as wire nets or
ropes.
• Objects that absorb sound waves, such as
snow.
• Objects that are shaped with a sharp an-
gle.
• Objects with a smooth surface, such as
glass.
• Objects that are low, such as kerbstones.NOTEl The buzzer may sound lower than the nor-
mal warning sound when the reversing sen-sor system is receiving ultrasonic noise from
other sources, but this is not a malfunction.
The buzzer will stop sounding and the sys- tem will return to normal operation after thenoise is no longer received.

CAUTIONlIf your vehicle has rain sensor wipers, place
the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position
to deactivate the rain sensor before washing the vehicle. Otherwise, the wipers will oper-ate in the presence of water spray on the
windscreen and may get damaged as a result.
l Refrain from excessively using a car wash as
its brushes may scratch the paint surface, causing it to lose its gloss. Scratches will be
especially visible on darker coloured vehi-
cles.
l Never spray or splash water on the electrical
components in the engine compartment. Do-
ing so could have an adverse effect on the
Plug-in Hybrid EV system startability.
Exercise caution also when washing the un- derbody; be careful not to spray water intothe engine compartment.
l Some types of hot water washing equipment
apply high pressure and heat to the vehicle.They may cause heat distortion and damage
to the vehicle resin parts and may result in
flooding of the vehicle interior.
Therefore;
• Maintain a distance of approx. 70 cm or
more between the vehicle body and the
washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass,
hold the nozzle at a distance of more than
70 cm and at right angles to the glass sur-
face.CAUTIONl After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal several times in order to dry out the
brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a possibility that they could freeze up or be-
come inoperative due to rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The antenna is removed.
• The wiper arms are secured in place with
tape.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a roof
rails, consult a car wash operator before using the car washer.
• If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers,
place the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor.
• Make sure that the charging lid and the
fuel lid are completely closed.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
recommended to have a preservative applied
and the underfloor protection checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all wa- terdrops from the rubber parts around the
doors to prevent the doors from freezing.
NOTEl To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be treated with silicone spray.Waxing
E00901000919
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the ad-
herence of dust and road chemicals to the paintwork. Apply a wax solution after wash- ing the vehicle, or at least once every three
months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.
You should wax after the surfaces have
cooled.
For information on how to use wax refer to the instruction manual of the wax.
