zWhen operating the Plug-in Hybrid EV System, the selector lever is in a position other than the “P” (PARK) position, or you pressed the power switch without depress-ing the brake pedal.
zPlace the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position, depress the brake pedal with the right foot. Then, press the power switch.Refer to “Starting and stopping the Plug-in Hybrid EV System” on page 7-12.
zDriving power is restricted by the safety system as the Plug-in Hybrid EV System has become too hot or too cold.
zYo u d o n o t h a v e t o t a k e a n y a c t i o n s . T h e restriction on the driving power will be released when the Plug-in Hybrid EV Sys-tem returns to the normal temperature.
zIf the vehicle had not been refueled about 15 litres or more at one time for a long time, the engine starts automatically for the maintenance and fuel system components.This display may appear frequently depending on the use conditions of your vehicle such as when the fuel has been staying in the fuel tank for a long time.When the engine is running, this display shows the state where the drive battery is charged, and the battery charge mode dis-play (
) is displayed.
zRefill the 15 litres more at one time. This display and battery charge mode display will disappear, and the engine will stop.

This lamp is a part of anonboard diagnostic systemwhich monitors the emissions,engine control system.If a problem is detected in one
of these systems, this lamp illuminates orflashes.Although your vehicle will usually be driva-ble and not need towing, we recommend youto have the system checked as soon as possi-ble.This lamp will also illuminate when the oper-ation mode of the power switch is put in ON,and goes off after the Plug-in Hybrid EV Sys-tem has started. If it does not go off after thePlug-in Hybrid EV System has started, werecommend you to have the vehicle checked.
This data will be erased if a auxiliary batterycable is disconnected which will make a rapiddiagnosis difficult. Do not disconnect a auxil-iary battery cable when the check enginewarning lamp is ON.
CAUTIONzIn the situations listed below, brake perfor-mance may be compromised or the vehiclemay become unstable if brakes are appliedsuddenly; consequen
tly, avoid driving at
high speeds or applyi
ng the brakes suddenly.
Furthermore, immediately the vehicle shouldbe brought to a stop in
a safe location and we
recommend you to have it checked.•The brake warning lamp does not illumi-nate when the parking brake is applied ordoes not turn off when the parking brake isreleased.•The brake warning lamp and the ABSwarning lamp illuminate at the same time.For details, refer to “ABS warning lamp”on page 7-30.•The brake warning lamp remains illumi-nated while driving.
zThe vehicle should be brought to a halt in thefollowing manner when brake performancehas deteriorated.• Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.Even if the brake pedal moves down to thevery end of its possible stroke, keep itpressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use regenerativebraking to reduce your speed and carefullypull the parking brake lever.Depress the brake pedal to operate the stoplamp to alert the vehicles behind you.

CAUTION
CAUTIONzProlonged driving with this lamp on maycause further damage to the emission controlsystem. It could also
affect fuel economy and
drivability.zIf the lamp does not illuminate when theoperation mode is put in ON, we recommendyou to have the system checked.zIf the lamp illuminates while the Plug-inHybrid EV System is
operating, avoid driv-
ing at high speeds and have the systeminspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorised Service Poin

For economical driving, there are some tech-nical requirements that have to be met. Theprerequisite for low fuel consumption is aproperly adjusted engine. In order to achievelonger life of the vehicle and the most eco-nomical operation, we recommend you tohave the vehicle checked at regular intervalsin accordance with the service standards.Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gasand noise are highly influenced by personaldriving habits as well as the particular operat-ing conditions. The following points shouldbe observed in order to minimize wear ofbrakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduceenvironmental pollution.Av o i d d r i v i n g w h e r e t h e a c c e l e r a t o r p e d a l i spushed way down, such as for unnecessarilysudden starts, acceleration and deceleration.Smoothly depress the accelerator pedal.Observe the speed limit and keep the speed asconstant as possible while driving.
Parking for a long period with the ready indi-cator illuminated will shorten the cruisingrange.At higher the vehicle speed, more drive bat-tery is consumed. Avoid driving at full speed.Even a slight release of the accelerator pedalwill save a significant amount of drive bat-tery.Check the tyre inflation pressures at regularintervals. Low tyre inflation pressureincreases road resistance and fuel consump-tion. In addition, low tyre pressures adverselyaffect tyre wear and driving stability.Do not drive with unnecessary articles in theluggage compartment. Especially during citydriving where frequent starting and stoppingis necessary, the increased weight of the vehi-cle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Also
avoid driving with unnecessary luggage orcarriers, etc., on the roof; the increased airresistance will increase fuel consumption.To o m u c h c o o l i n g / h e a t i n g c a n a ff e c t t h ecruising range, so maintain an appropriatetemperature to extend the cruising range.
E00600200070
Drunk driving is one of the most frequentcauses of accidents.Yo u r d r i v i n g a b i l i t y c a n b e s e r i o u s l y i m p a i r e deven with blood alcohol levels far below thelegal minimum. If you have been drinking,don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or usepublic transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.Similarly, prescription and nonprescriptiondrugs affect your alertness, perception andreaction time. Consult with your doctor orpharmacist before driving while under theinfluence of any of these medications.

The original equipment floor mat providedwith your vehicle was specifically designedfor your vehicle.Always properly position the floor mat andassure it does not interfere with operation ofthe pedals. Always use the retaining clip onthe driver’s floorboard to secure the floormat. When used, this clip will help preventthe floor mat from moving forward and possi-bly interfering with the operation of the ped-als. To prevent the floor mat from movingforward and possibly interfering with theoperation of the pedals, MITSUBISHIMOTORS GENUINE floor mats are recom-mended.

NOTE
zThe shape of the mat and the number ofretaining clips may
vary depending on the
vehicle model.WA R N I N GzIf a floor mat is the wrong size or is notproperly installed, it can interfere with theoperation of the pedals. Interference withthe pedals can cause unintended accelera-tion and/or increased stopping distancesresulting in a cras
h and injury. Always
make sure the floor mat does not interferewith the accelerator or brake pedal.zAlways use the reta
ining clip on the
driver’s floorboard
to secure the floor
mat.zAlways install the mat with the correctside facing down.
zNever install a second mat over or underan existing floor mat.zDo not use a floor mat designed foranother model vehicle even if it is a MIT-SUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE floor mat.zBefore driving, be sure to check the fol-lowing:•Periodically check that the floor mat isproperly secured with all retaining clips.When you remove the floor mat whilecleaning the inside of your vehicle andother reasons, always check the conditionafter the floor mat is installed.•While the vehicle is stopped with theengine is not running, check the floormat is not interfering with the pedals bydepressing the all pedals fully.WA R N I N G
