E00629201294
The power steering system operates while thePlug-in Hybrid EV System is operating.It helps reduce the effort needed to turn thesteering wheel.The power steering system has mechanicalsteering capability in case the power assist islost. If the power assist
is lost for some rea-
son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-cle, but you will notice it takes much moreeffort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi-cle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorised Service Point.
If there is a malfunction in the system, thewarning display will appear on the informa-tion screen in the multi information display.
E00616701497
The active stability control (ASC) takes over-all control of the anti-lock brake system, trac-tion control function and stability controlfunction to help maintain the vehicle’s controland traction.

WA R N I N GzDo not stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV Systemwhile the vehicle is moving. Stopping thePlug-in Hybrid EV System would makethe steering wheel extremely hard to turn,possibly resulting in an accident.
NOTE
zDuring repeated full-lock turning of thesteering wheel (for example, while you aremanoeuvring the vehicle into a parkingspace), a protection function may be acti-vated to prevent overheating of the powersteering system. This function will make thesteering wheel gradually harder to turn. Inthis event, limit your turning of the steeringwheel for a while. When the system hascooled down, the steering effort will returnto normal.zIf you turn the steering wheel while the vehi-cle is stationary with the headlamps on, theheadlamps may become dim. This behaviouris not abnormal. The headlamps will returnto their original brightness after a shortwhile.

E00634601078
The ACC maintains a set speed with no needfor you to use the accelerator pedal. Using asensor (A), the system also measures the rela-tive speed and distance between your vehicleand a vehicle in front, and maintains a set fol-lowing distance between your vehicle and thevehicle in front by automatically deceleratingyour vehicle if it becomes too close to thevehicle in front.The ACC is the driver assist system to makecomfortable on a freeway. Stop lamps areilluminated during automatic braking.If you desire, a cruise control without inter-vention of the following distance control isalso selectable.
NOTE
zA driver can change th
e set speed during this
emergency use.

Yo u r v e h i c l e r u n s a t a s p e e d t o w h i c h y o u s e t .It is possible to set the speed between approx-imately 40 and 180 km/h.The ACC makes control to maintain a follow-ing distance (time gap) matched with thevehicle speed between your vehicle and avehicle in front while also activating brakesas necessary.
If the vehicle in front stops, the ACC reacts toit by stopping your vehicle.Depress the brake pedal as soon as your vehi-cle comes to a stop.
•When your vehicle is on a chassisdynamometer or free rollers.•When the air pressure in the tyres is notcorrect.•When installing the spare tyre for emer-gency.•When tyre chains are attached.zBe sure to take the following precautions tokeep the system in proper operating condi-tions.Improper handling of the system componentsmay result in degraded sensor performance.•Avoid application of
strong shock loads to
the sensor and never tamper with or removethe sensor mounting screws.• The cover in front of the sensor and the sen-sor should be kept clean.•Do not cover the sensor mounted area ofthe vehicle or the sensor cover with asticker or anything such as a grill guardetc..•The sensor front cove
r should not be modi-
fied or painted.•Avoid using different
size tyres from those
specified and maintain even tyre wear.•Do not modify the suspension of your vehi-cle.
zWhen the cover in front of the sensor or thesensor is deformed for an accident, please donot use the ACC and
contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorised Service Point.CAUTION
When ACC detects no vehicle in front within the set distance

NOTE
zIf the vehicle speed exceed the set speed ondown slope, the system automatically appliesthe brake to maintain the vehicle speed.zWhen depressing the brake pedal while auto-matic brake is applied, the brake pedal is feltsolidly, but it is not abnormal. You can moredepress the pedal and it provides greaterbraking force.zSound is heard while automatic brake, but itis operated a brake control and not abnormal.
When ACC detects a vehicle in front within the set distance

NOTE
zIf you do not depress the brake pedal within2 seconds after an automatic stop, you arealerted to automatic cancellation of the ACCby a buzzer and display message and theACC shift into the ‘standby state’.The vehicle will then start creeping as thebrakes are released.
