When performing inspection and mainte-nance, be careful in the following points.
zIn the event of an accident that requiresbody repair and painting, the vehicleshould be delivered to a MITSUBISHIMOTORS Authorised Service Point tohave the drive battery and high voltageparts such as the inverter, including theattached wiring harness, removed prior topainting. If exposed to heat in the paintbooth, the drive battery will experiencebattery capacity loss.A damaged drive battery can also posesafety risks to untr
ained mechanics and
repair personnel.NOTE
zThe emergency shut-off system will be acti-vated and the high-voltage system will auto-matically turn off under the followingconditions:•Certain front, side or rear collisions.•Certain Plug-in Hybrid EV system mal-functions.
zWhen the emergency shut
-off system is acti-
vated, the ready indicator
is turned off. Refer
to “Indicator and warning lamps” on page6-21.zIf the emergency shut-off system activates,contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Author-
ised Service Point.WA R N I N G
Inspection and maintenance
WA R N I N GzBefore performing inspection or mainte-nance, be sure to disconnect the chargeconnector from the vehicle and confirmthat put the operation mode of the powerswitch in “OFF”.zNever touch, disassemble, remove orreplace highvolt
age parts, exposed electri-
cal components, cables or connectors.Failure to follow this instruction canresult in severe burns or electric shockcausing serious injury or death. High-volt-age cables are colored orange. The vehiclehigh voltage system has no user servicea-ble parts. Take your vehicle to a MITSUB-ISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Pointfor any necessary maintenance.zNever touch the service plug under therear seat. Improper ha
ndling of this could
cause an electric shock which result in aserious injury or death. The service plug isused to shut off the high voltage from thedrive battery when repairing the vehicleat a MITSUBISHI MOTORS AuthorisedService Point.

zWhen the ambient temperature is approximately 45 °C or higher, the phenomena described below may occur. Please take the describ
ed action.
WA R N I N GzThe Plug-in Hybrid EV System uses highvoltage up to DC 300 volt. The system canbe hot during and after starting and whenthe vehicle is shut off. Be careful of boththe high voltage and
the high temperature.
Follow the warning labels that areattached to the vehicle.zAlways assume the
high voltage battery
and associated components are energizedand fully charged.zNever perform servicing when READYindicator is illuminating or when thecharging indicator is
illuminating or flash-
ing because the high-voltage system isoperating.
For persons with electro-medi-cal apparatus such as implanta-ble cardiac pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defi-brillator
WA R N I N GzDo not bring your body close to the footarea of the rear seat and do not stay in theluggage compartment wh
ile the vehicle is
moving. Also, do not allow persons usingan electro-medical apparatus to stay in theluggage compartment wh
ile the vehicle is
moving. The operation
of electro-medical
apparatus may be affected.zBefore you perform charging work, askthe manufacturer of your electro-medicalapparatus about the effect from chargingwork. Charging may affect the operationof your electro-medical apparatus.Refer to “Normal charging (chargingmethod with rated AC 240 V outlet)” onpage 3-8.
zObserve the following precautions for nor-mal charging:•Keep away from the charge connector orcontrol box.•Do not stay inside
of the vehicle.
•Do not get in the vehicle (including theluggage comapartment) to take outsomething or for other purpose. Refer to “Normal charging (chargingmethod with rated AC 240 V outlet)” onpage 3-8.WA R N I N G

A mixture of up to 10 % ethanol (grain alco-hol) and 90 % unleaded petrol may be used in
your vehicle, provided the octane number isat least as high as that recommended forunleaded petrol.
NOTE
z*1: Refer to “Limited driving mode
warning display” on page 6-33.
Display of the Limited driving mode warni
ng display does not i
ndicate a malfunction.
z*2: Refer to “ready indicator” on page 6-37.
z*3: To make warm up the drive battery, you shoul
d perform to communicate with the wireless
LAN device (which conforms to IEEE 802

iOS or Android) for MITSUBISHI Remote Cont
rol to the vehicle. If the information of
“” mark on the wireless LAN device is displ
ayed, connect the
EV charging cable as soon as possible.Refer to “MITSUBISHI Remote
Control” on page 3-17.
If the warming up of the drive battery is activated during home
or public charging device (EVSE:

NOTE
zThe auxiliary battery is automaticallycharged while the ready indicator is illumi-nated or during charge for the drive battery.Refer to “Ready indica
tor” on page 6-37.
zIf the auxiliary battery is flat, the Plug-inHybrid EV system cannot be started.Refer to “Emergency starting” on page 9-2.

always use an outlet
protected by a residual current detector,rated for amperage equal to or greaterthan the value specified by MITSUBISHIMOTORS, and that is connected to a dedi-cated branch circuit. If the circuit isshared, and another electrical device isbeing used at the same time the vehicle ischarging, the breaker may trip and thecircuit may cause adverse interference onMCB (Moulded Circui

WA R N I N GzIf the POWER or CHARGING indicatordoes not illuminates or the FAULT indica-tor blinks or illuminates during normalcharging, please contact a MITSUBISHIMOTORS Authorised Service Point.zDo not charge when the EV chargingcable is coiled up.The cable may be heated and resulting infire.zDo not alter or disassemble the EV charg-ing cable. Doing so could cause a fire, elec-tric shock or injury.zBe sure to install the cap to the normalcharge connector and
store the EV charg-
ing cable in a place where the cable is notexposed to water or dust. Entry of foreignmatter such as water or dust in the metalterminal of the normal charge connectoror charging cable plug
may cause a fire or
malfunction. Contact with a metal such aswire or tool may cause a fire, electricshock or malfunction.zNever force the connection if the EVcharging cable or connector shows dam-age or is not easily connected due to for-eign material entering the connector orthe outlet. And never use an outlet that isworn, damaged, or will not hold the plugfirmly. Doing so could cause fire, an elec-tric shock, or
short circuit.
zPay attention to the following for handlingthe EV charging cable.Damage to the cable could cause a fire,electric shock,
or short circuit.
•Do not drop the cable or do not givestrong impact to it.•Do not pull with undue force.•Do not twist.•Do not drag.•Do not put an object on top.•Do not put the cable close to a heatingunit including heater.CAUTIONzDo not connect the normal charge cable to anoutlet that has a lower rating than the currentvalue described
on the control box.
NOTE
zAll indicators are illuminated momentarilyfor confirming operation when the chargingcable plug is inserted into an outlet. Afterthat the POWER indicator and the CHARG-ING indicator is continuously illuminated.zThe CHARGING indicator will start to blinkwhen the charging is completed. ThePOWER indicator is continuously illumi-nated while the charging cable plug isinserted into an outlet.WA R N I N G
Handling and storing the con-trol box
CAUTIONzWhile charging, prevent damage to the con-trol box by attaching a rope as shown in thefollowing illustration.NOTE
zUse a hook with a load capacity over 4 kg.zCheck the rope has no damage and is notloose before use.
