EV cruising range
E00204000027
l Even if the charge level is the same, the
EV cruising range may vary depending
on driving conditions. Since driving at high speed or climbing on a hill requireshigher consumption of the drive batterythan usual, the EV cruising range is
shortened.
l Since the air conditioning (cooling or
heating) consumes power of the drive battery, its operation results in a shorterEV cruising range. Maintain an appro-
priate temperature.
l Put the selector lever to “B” (BRAKE)
position according to the road condition. To charge the drive battery with appro-priate use of the regenerative brake, it can be increased the EV cruising range.
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-
tem (AVAS)
E00204100031
The Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
(AVAS) is a device that uses sound to alert pedestrians of the presence of the vehicle.The system operates when the vehicle speed
is about 35 km/h (22 mph) or less and the en-
gine is not running.
Refer to “Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
(AVAS)” on page 7-23.
WARNINGl Even if the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-
tem (AVAS) sounds, pay special attention
to pedestrians.
Pedestrians may not notice the oncoming vehicle, which may cause an accident re-
sulting in serious personal injury or death.Operating sound under charg-
ing or remote climate control
E000204600023
Even if the operation mode of the power
switch is OFF, you may hear the operating
sound such as cooling fan for cooling the
drive battery during charging, the air condi- tioning compressor and for remote climate control (if so equipped).
But this is not a malfunction.
Refer to “Remote Climate Control” on page
3-23.
In case of a collision
E00204200032
A crash or impact significant enough to re-
quire an emergency response for convention- al vehicles would also require the same re-sponse for Outlander PHEV.
Also follow the instructions described below to avoid severe burns and electrical shock
that may result in serious injury or death.
WARNINGl If your vehicle is drivable, pull your vehi-
cle off the road to a safe, nearby location and remain on the scene.
Also, if possible, do the following opera- tions and stay out of the way of any on-
coming traffic while awaiting the arrival of emergency responders.
• Apply chocks to the wheels.
• Put the select position in “P” (PARK)
position.
• Apply the parking brake.
• Open the windows, doors and tailgate.
• Put the operation mode in OFF.
• Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
• Move the key away from the vehicle to
prevent unintended start-up of the sys- tem by inadvertent contact with a switch or impact from the crash.
l Never touch high-voltage wiring, connec-
tors, and other high-voltage parts, such as the inverter unit and drive battery. Anelectric shock may occur if exposed elec-
tric wires are visible when viewed from inside or outside of your vehicle. For their locations, see “High-voltage components”
on page 3-12.
l If the vehicle receives a strong impact to
the floor while driving, stop the vehicle in
a safe place and check the floor.
Plug-in Hybrid EV System
2-05OGGE14E5General information2

WARNINGlNever start the plug-in hybrid EV system
if you have found liquid leaking (exceptwater of the air conditioner) while check- ing the outside of the vehicle. The fuel sys-
tem might have been damaged and might be causing fire or explosion.
In such case, immediately contact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
l Leaks or damage to the drive battery may
result in a fire. If you discover them, con-
tact emergency services immediately.
Since the fluid leak may be lithium man- ganite from the Lithium-ion battery, nev- er touch any fluid leaking from the inside
or outside of the vehicle. If the fluid con- tacts your skin or eyes, wash it off imme-
diately with a large amount of water and receive immediate medical attention to
help avoid serious injury.
l If you are unable to safely assess the vehi-
cle due to vehicle damage, do not touch the vehicle. Leave the vehicle and contact
emergency services. Advise emergency responders that this is a Plug-in Hybrid
vehicle.WARNINGl If a fire occurs in this vehicle, leave the
vehicle as soon as possible and contact
emergency services. Do not attempt to ex- tinguish a fire by yourself. If the fire in-
volves a lithium-ion battery, it will re- quire large, sustained volumes of water for extinguishment. Using a small amount
of water or the incorrect fire extinguisher
can result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.
l When you leave the vehicle, if possible,
open the windows, doors and tailgate to
prevent accumulation of poisonous/ combustible gasses. This will also assist in
the rescue and fire fighting process.
l As with any vehicle fire, the byproducts of
combustion can be toxic. Do not inhale
smoke, vapors, or gas from the vehicle. Move to a safe distance upwind and uphill
from the vehicle fire and out of the way of any oncoming traffic while awaiting the
arrival of emergency responders.
l If you detect leaking fluids, sparks,
smoke, flames, gurgling, popping or hiss-
ing noises originating from the high volt- age battery compartment, contact emer-
gency services immediately. This may re- sult in a fire.
l Physical damage to the vehicle or high
voltage battery may result in immediate or delayed release of toxic and/or flamma- ble gases and fire.WARNINGl If your vehicle needs to be towed, trans-
port the vehicle on a flatbed truck or tow
the vehicle with all wheels off the ground.
If any of the wheels are on the ground when towing, this may cause damage to
the electric motors. This may also cause a
fire, if wiring in the electric motor unit room becomes damaged. Refer to “Tow-
ing” on page 9-18.
l Do not attempt to repair a damaged Plu-
gin Hybrid vehicle by yourself. Please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point for service.
l In the event of an accident that requires
body repair and painting, the vehicle should be delivered to a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point to
have the drive battery and high voltage parts such as the inverter, including the
attached wiring harness, removed prior to painting. If exposed to heat in the paint
booth, the drive battery will experience battery capacity loss.
A damaged drive battery can also pose
safety risks to untrained mechanics and repair personnel.NOTEl The emergency shut-off system will be acti-
vated and the high-voltage system will auto- matically turn off under the following condi-
tions:

CAUTIONl Do not use more than 10 % concentration of
ethanol (grain alcohol) by volume.
Use of more than 10 % concentration may
lead to damage to your vehicle fuel system,
engine, engine sensors and exhaust system.Filling the fuel tank
E00200203804WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
l Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. You could be burned or seriously in-
jured when handling it. When refueling
your vehicle, always put the operation mode of the power switch in OFF and
keep away from flames, sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well-ventilated outdoor areas.
l Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the car or the fuel pump. Any static electricity on your
body could create a spark that ignites fuel vapour.WARNINGl Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov- ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do notlet any other person come near the fuel
tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and that person was carrying static
electricity, fuel vapour could be ignited.
l Do not perform charging and refueling at
the same time. If you charged with staticelectricity, fuel vapour could be ignited by the discharge spark.
l Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for exam-
ple, sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up afresh charge of static electricity.
l Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel
contains toxic substances.
l Keep the doors and windows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open,fuel vapour could get into the cabin.
l If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.CAUTIONl Depending on the operating conditions of
your vehicle, the fuel in the fuel tank may
not be used for a long time and stay in the tank, resulting in deterioration of the fuel
quality. As this may affect the engine and
