l When some problem occurs with the
system. (In this situation, the ACC con-
trol is automatically cancelled and the system is turned off. You are alerted to
this situation by the sound of a buzzer and a message on the display. If the mes-
sage remains displayed even after setting the operation mode to “ON”, please con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.)
l When some other condition which cau-
ses the control to terminate occurs. (This situation may indicate a fault. Turn off
ACC and please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.)

To turn off ACC
Press the “ACC ON/OFF” switch when ACC is in the ‘ON state’ to turn off ACC.
NOTEl Pressing the switch turns off the ACC even
if it is engaged.
l The set speed is cancelled when the ACC is
turned off or the operation mode is set to
“OFF”.
l If the ACC is in the ‘ON state’ when the op-
eration mode is set to “OFF”, the system is set to the ‘OFF state’ when the operation
mode is set to “ON” next time.
To resume the control
After cancelling the ACC control (i.e. placing
the system in the ‘standby state’) by pressing the “CANCEL” switch or depressing the
brake pedal, you can resume the ACC control
at the originally set speed if you push up the “RES -” switch.

NOTElThe conditions to be met before the ACC
control can be resumed are the same as those for starting the ACC control.
To change the following dis-
tance setting
Every time you press the following distance
setting switch, the setting changes sequential- ly through three options “Long”, “Middle”
and “Short”, cycling back to “Long” after “Short”. The distance setting is reset when
the operation mode is set to “OFF” or when the ACC is set to “OFF,” and is automatically
set to “long” when you set the ACC to “ON”
next time.
NOTEl The following distance varies as a function
of the speed; the faster the set speed, the lon- ger the following distance.Following distance setting: “Long”Following distance setting: “Middle”Following distance setting: “Short”
To activate cruise control (auto-
matic speed control)
If you hold the “ACC ON/OFF” switch
pressed with the operation mode set to “ON” and the ACC in the ‘OFF state’, the cruisecontrol is activated. The information screen
of the multi-information display then changes to the cruise control screen and a buzzersounds at the same time.
Cruise control is turned off if you set the op-
eration mode to “OFF”.

trol system) does not alert by proximity
alarm and control distance between vehicles to the vehicle in front.Forward Collision
Mitigation System (FCM)* E00635101126
The FCM uses a sensor (A) to determine thedistance to a vehicle in front in the same laneand its speed relative to your vehicle’s speed. If the system judges that your vehicle is in
danger of colliding against the vehicle almost
straight from behind, it gives you visual and
audible alarms (Forward collision warning function), increases the brake fluid pressure
(FCM brake prefill function), and also pro- vides braking force assistance when you de-press the brake pedal (FCM brake assist func-
tion) to avoid frontal collision.
Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM)*
7-55OGGE16E1Starting and driving7

When the risk of collision increases more, thesystem causes the brakes to work moderately to encourage you to apply brakes. If the sys-
tem judges that a potential collision is immi- nent, it initiates emergency braking to miti-gate collision-caused damages or to avoidpossible collision (FCM braking function).
Stop lamps are illuminated during automatic
braking.
If you turn the FCM ON/OFF, the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System also turns
ON/OFF at the same time. (Vehicle is equip- ped with the Ultrasonic misacceleration Miti-
gation System.)WARNINGl A driver is responsible for driving safely.
The FCM is the system to mitigate colli-sion-caused damages or to avoid collisionsas much as possible.
The system is not intended to compensate
for driver’s loss of attention to the front during driving due to distraction or care-
lessness or supplement a drop in visibility
due to the rain and fog.
It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be ready to applythe brakes manually.
l The FCM works to avoid frontal collisions
as much as possible. However, the effect of its operation varies depending on situa-
tions and conditions, such as driving con- ditions, road conditions, and steering, ac-
celeration and braking operations, so that
the performance the function can deliver
is not always the same.
If your vehicle is in danger of collision,
take all necessary collision-evading ac- tions, such as depressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the systemis activated or not.Forward collision warning
function
E00635401031
If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle in front,
this function warns you of the potential haz-
ard with visual and audible alarms.
When this function is triggered, a buzzer
sounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE” message appears on the information screen of
the multi-information display.CAUTIONl This function does not work for a vehicle in
front which is moving extremely slower than
your vehicle.
l Under certain conditions, the audible alarm
may not work at all or may be scarcely audi-
ble. Do not overly rely on the system; if your
vehicle is in danger of collision, take all nec- essary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.

FCM brake prefill function
E00635200016
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle in front,
this function prefills the brake line with addi- tional brake fluid to make the brakes more re-
sponsive to your brake pedal operation.
FCM brake assist function
E00635301027
If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle in front,
this function deploys the brake assist sooner than the brake assist operation.
CAUTIONl The brake assist function may not be trig-
gered when the brake pedal is operated in certain ways.
Do not overly rely on the system; if your ve-
hicle is in danger of collision, take all neces-
sary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM braking function
E00635501289
If the system judges that there is a high risk
of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle in
front, the system applies the brakes moder-
ately to encourage you to apply the brakes.
If the system judges that a collision is un-
avoidable, it initiates emergency braking con-trol to mitigate collision-caused damages or,
if the situation permits, to avoid a collision.
When the emergency braking control is trig- gered, you are warned of the hazard with vis-
ual and audible alarms like with the Forward collision warning function.
Once the emergency braking has worked, you
are alerted to this by a message on the infor- mation screen of the multi information dis- play.CAUTIONl Do not use the FCM as a normal braking.
l After your vehicle has stopped following the
activation of the FCM, automatic braking is
released. As the vehicle will then start creep-
ing, be sure to depress the brake pedal to
hold the vehicle stationary.CAUTIONl When applying the brake during the auto-
matic braking condition the pedal will feel firm.
This is not abnormal.
You can apply more pressure to the pedal to
assist in braking.
l In the following situations, the system pro-
vides neither control nor alarming.
• The vehicle in front of your vehicle is
moving at a speed much lower than your
vehicle’s speed.
• When a vehicle suddenly cuts in front of
your vehicle.
• When the distance from a vehicle in front
is extremely short.
• To an oncoming vehicle.
• When your vehicle’s speed is much low-
er.
• When the selector lever is in the “P”
(PARK), the “R” (REVERSE), or the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position.

shifting actions as evasive actions to
avoid collision.
• When you are driving on a road with
steep and alternating up and down slopes.CAUTION• When a road surface is surging, and there
is unevenness.
• When being driven in a tunnel.
• When your vehicle changed lanes, and
your vehicle approached immediately be- hind the vehicle in front.
• During a certain time after your vehicle
turns left or right.
• When you are carrying extremely heavy
loads in the rear seats or luggage area.
• After the engine has 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 over heating.
• When you are driving in light traffic with
few vehicles and obstacles in front.

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.CAUTION• Do not cover the sensor mounted area
(shaded area as shown in the illustration)
with a sticker, licence plate 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

*UMS: Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation
System
Intermittent beeping soundWARNINGlDo not overly rely on the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System. It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be careful
to operate the accelerator pedal perceiving the environmental conditions. Misoperation can lead to a serious accident.
l As the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System is not a function to keep the stop condition of the vehicle, depress the brake pedal according to
the environmental condition.
l Depending on the situation, the system does not operate even if the vehicle or the obstacle in front and behind your vehicle and this may cause the
vehicle to start suddenly and lead to a serious accident.
l If the vehicle is trapped in the railway crossing because the system is activated as the crossing barrier is misrecognised as an obstacle, escape from
the railway crossing without any panic by one of the following methods.
• Release the foot from the accelerator pedal and lightly depress the pedal again.
• Turn the system OFF. (Continuously press the Forward collision mitigation system (FCM) and Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System
ON/OFF switch for more than 3 seconds.)
• Continuously depress the accelerator pedal for more than 5 seconds.
• Repeat to press the accelerator pedal quickly to its full stroke more than 3 times.
l Do not perform inspection of the system operation on your own. Depending on the situation, this may cause the system to not operate properly and
lead to a serious accident.
